If you're at all on the fence about who you're voting for:

Adler wants to follow the republican (trump era) plan of eroding confidence in public education - accusing educators of having "an agenda" (as if it's monolith). We all know that "agenda" is that we shouldn't discriminate against LGBTQ communities and science is real.

Chen: At first I thought he was just an old school conservative - but his comments at the board of ed debate were really disturbing. He referred to the FARM program as "addictive" and encouraged kids to graduate off of it.

Dan Newburger has nuance and a deep wonky understanding of our county's education system.His answers to show an ability to separate how he wishes things were done with the pragmatic approach of what should be done.

McKoy: I'm not excited by her answers to a lot of the questions - but she has a Masters degree from Johns Hopkins in secondary education and is a former teacher. She doesn't seem to shy away from work, so she has my vote.
