I blogged about this race (for 2 seats on the November General Election ballot) earlier, click here (with photos of the 4 candidates). These candidates were also interviewed separately on KUAT Channel 6 (click here.)

“Tucsonans United for a Sound District is a nonpartisan group dedicated to the preservation of public education and the improvement of TUSD.”

You can vote online at their website as to these 3 questions: “Which candidate’s posted priority most reflect yours? (please take the time to review the candidates’ pages first)?, What is the most important characteristic in a school board member? and What should be the first priority of the School Board?”
