Comment Rescue from Delaware Liberal Commenter X Stryker

OK, I have done some research on the Christina School District candidates:
1. Val Harris is the V4D candidate. Her statements are largely broad an empty, and I suspect the primary appeal to the V4D folks is that she clearly notes her religious affiliations on her qualification list. I checked her website and it’s full of misspellings. That is a non-starter when it comes to education in my book.
2. Shirley Saffer is on the school board already. She has a lot of endorsements. One might argue she’s part of the status quo, but a number of people have notes that she works hard. Her website has only been up since April, but has maintained a steady flow of information.
3. Stephen Lee has no website. His answers to the questionnaire sounded progressive, but that is all I could find on him. I’m worried he could be there just to split the vote; in any case, I can’t find any evidence that he’s put much effort into this.

In conclusion, I will be voting for Shirley Saffer, primarily because she is the candidate who can not only best defeat V4D, but also serve with experience and effort.
