$50,000 down the drain. Again.
Our Senator, “Money” Mayes Middleton, and another millionaire out of Dallas, donated $50,000 to FISD candidate John Scott. He lost. As noted before, the district has only 6000 students in 6 schools. Why anyone would need $50,000 to run in such a small district is beyond me, but this is Texas where money rules.
What is surprising is that Friendswood is a blood shot red MAGAt city. They probably voted for trump, three times, and yet the $50,000 didn’t sway them from returning the incumbents back to office. That is odd. Maybe the trump voters found a bit of morality and voted against the nasty attack ads. Who knows?
It’s definitely an interesting situation one that CCISD trustees should be looking at very closely. If they align CCISD elections with the November elections they will be inviting unlimited money from every white wing millionaires and billionaires in the country with the sole purpose of taking over school districts. Those running for the right reasons will never get elected and would never be able to compete.
Maybe the Friendswood election is a freak occurrence.
