Days after board members laughed at the exchange, the Washington County Board of Education called the comments “shocking,” saying “no explanation can justify that.”
That seems definitive, good to have a rock solid source.
My local school board anyone can run. The only requirement is you are a resident of the district you represent, and you are over 18, and you are a registered voter. That’s literally it. There are no other requirements, qualifications, or criteria for running for school board.
Useful information , eligibility to run is still not the full criteria for how someone is evaluated for a position though.
Technically, i suppose it could be considered an initial screening, so you’re not entirely incorrect, just incorrect that it’s the only evaluation mechanism.
If it were , there’d be no need for votes, first person to apply and be eligible would automatically get the job.
I have no idea what you are saying now. You’re saying, you should dictatorially be given the power to appoint school board members, and you’d do so solely on a first come, first given, basis?
OK, so you are saying you want to be a dictator of school board members, because you are the one who should have sole authority in this area. And you would not judge people based on qualifications or merit?

I mean, not at all , read the reply again.

Ah, i see, you don’t have an actual response so you weaponise ignorance, that’s actually pretty clever.
It’s hard to argue with someone not using reason as a basis, you neither have to present a reasonable argument nor support it, that’s downright devious.
In case that reply was serious and you just missed what i was saying, i’ll try and simplify for you and leave out the extra words around it so there’s nothing to be confused about…ready ?

No dude, legally. It is. It is the only criteria that restricts and defines who can run for the position.
You can make up arbitrary things in your head, but legally you cannot stop anyone from running or winning, with the made up criteria in your head.
You can go and campaign to change your local election laws, btw.
