1. Michelle and Kevin have to go b I’m gonna throw my name in it against Kevin so stay tuned. And Kevin buddy you know when you see my name in it you know what I have lol

   • Michelle seems to be the only one bringing sound judgement and a thoughtful perspective. It’s a shame more capable community members aren’t willing to serve on the JC school board.

     • You can’t complain if you don’t step up. I’ve thought about it a lot lately.

   • I’ll vote for you, Oooops, I don’t know your name.

2. Michelle Antoine, thank you for ending CRT (Critical Race Theory) in our schools. We are one race the human race. See Acts in the Bible and Mitochondrial DNA. God bless mother of five, Michelle Antoine! You have my vote, dear!

   • Like I said before JoCo. Keep re-electing these idiots who only care about getting re-elected and special interests, not about the constituents they are suppose to serve.

     • absolutely correct!

3. Why in heavens name can’t someone run against Michelle Antoine and Kevin Donovan!!!?? Vote them OUT!!!

4. Is Randy Ackley not running?

   • Filing ends on the 19th.

     • Gives the impression that he’s not fully committed to the job. I know he is because he’s been campaigning and has a bunch of $$ invested but when you don’t register the first day it seems your wishy washy. Needs to get a better campaign manager..

       • Please consider that there could be things that are possibly of importance causing the delay. Never know what is taking place in one’s lives.

       • I agree. But what makes him think he is capable of overseeing a multimillion-dollar department? What are his credentials. I believe his campaign manager is his wife. Please correct me if I’m wrong. Steve has done an excellent job getting these drug dealers locked up and protecting our citizens.

5. Thank you Michelle for fighting what’s right!

6. Please, for all that is holy, do not elect someone who has moved here from up north! If they don’t like our way and want it to be like where they came from, they should have just stayed.

   • Just like the ole south
     Hang the white flag
     You lost again

   • Amen!

7. Michelle Antoine has no more stopped CRT in our schools than a man in the moon. A vote for her is a vote for charter and private schools. A school board member who has children that attend private schools have no business on the board. She needs to go!

   • I think you actually convinced me to vote for her.

8. I hate to sound dumb again but is it really true that our school board members kids go to private schools???

9. Why do so many positions not have a challenger? Most these people need to go!

10. Ppl need to pqy attention because our students do not know basic math, how to spell or sign their name. Our towns are over stepping their city limits and allowing developers to ruin our country with these spot zoning and lying bout subdivisions conforming with the farming. Farm animals do not like concrete. Green pastures, not street lights is conformity when you do not live in town. None of the county commisioners, board of education and town boards act in public best interest. When have anyone of these folks polled the ppl to find out what ppl want funded by tax they paid. No not one, furthermore they give notice to public hearings and do not listen to public so ppl get told that their opinion does not matter an the notice is only a formality. (I have had so many ppl tell me they have no say an no voice an boards are waste of time) Folks they should poll us before wasting tax money on projects not necessary or even wanted by majority of tax payers. Funding social agendas and mass unsecured survelience is not what tax payers want. These cameras that have been put up around towns and on light poles for security is just like China except anyone subaceibes to company network has access and stalking innocent ppl an criminals alike wifi pings from cell tower to tower. Show me the man and ill show you his crime!! Ppl have no problem solving skills, no vocational trade skills, no personal signature and cant count change so use cards. Heck builders no longer have enough sense to build brick houses and only know 1 color go paint houses ( grey). Gov approves permits but can not supply public utilities etc. to accomadate. If you live in the country and think that what the town commission cant affect you, your wrong! It does and you do not get a vote only ppl in town limits do but their over reach will affect you. Taxation without representation. Bill of Rights and your Consgitutional Rights are getting trampled but since this is no longer taught in schools ppl do not know what 4th amendment rights are anymore or privacy..
