Election May 21st

Ballots have been mailed. May elections are usually low turnout since they are primarily local non-partisan elections and ballot measures. This gives an opportunity for a small percentage of voters to elect someone who may not have the best intentions for the community.

So-Vote!!

Most races are uncontested. Here are the contested races and others of interest.

Grants Pass School District #7
Brian DeLaGrange, Position #6 No comment. Read the voter pamphlet – what applicable experience do they have; what have they supported and opposed regarding school funding. For example,  DeLaGrange has opposed a middle school levy and Penning has not placed an alternative on the ballot.
Joshua Shannon, Position #6
Garry L Penning
Three Rivers School District
Danny L. York, Zone 2 He is the incumbent. Recommendation from Kate Dwyer:  “I am the IV school board rep for TRSD. Both Paul Kelly and Danny York have served with intelligence and respect. TRSD is on a good path, with clear board goals and increasing grad rates. I would like to continue to serve with both Paul and Danny. The challenger would bring disruption. Please vote for the board to continue in its current form.”
Judy Ahrens, Zone 2 Supports Constitution Party Education platform that all education should be private (no public schools). See Courier front page article of May 1st.
