Probably. Not much going on the local ballots of any interest, but the local MR/DD has a renewal up and I know people who'd be helped out if that place got reasonably adequate funds (autistic kids and such), so I'd like to vote for that, so when it inevitably fails, I can at least say I did my part.

Yes, there are 6 people running for 3 spots on the school board. I like to say the only qualifications to run for school board are 18 years old, breathing and a non felon! lol

No. I've lived in a new city (Heath, OH) since March and have no attachment yet at all. Also I hate politics.

LOL, WTF are you doing in Heath? I grew up in the area and Newark/Heath was the "big city" near us.

I'll vote. We have mayoral and council elections.

If it weren't a renewal, I prolly would too. However, TPS is making strides, so I'm going to give the new superintendent the benefit of the doubt and vote yes.

Why would you vote it down either way? School and parks levies are things I'll very, very rarely vote no on.

The only time I thought about it was when after a previous levy failed, the district "found" and additional 1.3 million dollars that was misappropriated. I keep a close eye on this, as I too feel the success of public schools are what drives our property values. However, if transparency becomes an issue, then "prolly" voting for it creeps into my thought process.
