As a past schoolboard candidate i just want to point out how unfortunate it is that these have become expensive races to run. In the best of all worlds, people without significant political resources ( either money from various political machines in town or future political aspirations or current connections) would be able to run and even win because they give a good g&dd*mn about kids and students, not because they are good fundraisers. . In that same vein, kudos to Tucson Agenda for giving all of these candidates a chance to get their names and platforms out there and being a true resource for the Tucson community!
