I am often asked by women: “How can one person make a difference?” Here’s how Angela Engel used a blog and a little research time to change the face of politics in the Denver Metro area. Angela is a “voter advocate” who offers clear, logical reasons for her choices. Does your city have a voter advocate, a person you read first before you vote.
In giving her *personal picks* Angela begins this way:
“This is an off election year so fewer people will be voting. Unfortunately some pretty bad characters can then get elected by small margins of voters. Douglas County is an excellent example. The decisions made by your “elected” school boards impacts your life and the lives of ALL children. If you like art, music and PE, you’ll want to vote. If you believe our youth should have access to school counselors and mental health services, elect good people. If you think teachers should be supported, parents included and children served then please participate in the decision making.
Corporations are buying these school board elections in order to sell their products and improve their bottom dollar. Large school board elections in Jeffco, Denver and Douglas County are primarily financed by corporate elites, many whom reside outside of Colorado. (END)
