Plotting a Comeback?
Kansas City Star columnist Mike Hendricks takes a look at the school board races in Olathe, DeSoto, Topeka and Wichita. Voting in those elections will happen Tuesday.
Is the religious right, frustrated by losing its majority on the state board and thwarted in writing their religious views into the science curriculum, plotting to take over local boards?
Hendricks isn't convinced there's a concerted plan, but either way, if social and fiscal conservatives win local board elections, student will suffer.
Red State Rabble will publish a list of pro-science, pro-education candidates in those races Friday.
