The unabashedly left-leaning SD-EPIC – the political wing of SDEA has now issued their voters guide for the 2016 election. And while they have a few token Republicans who they are sucking up to, predictably, at the state level, they went heavily Democrat. In their voter guide, they offered an endorsement of Paula Hawks.
And then they walked back from the precipice of ridiculousness, by going neutral in the US Senate Race Yes, despite being a former School Board member, they could not bring themselves force their membership to swallow an endorsement of Jay Williams, choosing instead to take a pass.
You can read all about it here.
And in case you’re wondering who they endorsed at the State Legislative level:
They can have Thune thanks to the the turtle on the fence post.Meaning the turtle got put up there.It looks like dems could pick up seven seats.John will now be able to help raise the minimum wage and raise social security benifits for older people since he cares for us so much.
Looks like more dems care about education than republicans.
Correction: Care about the teacher’s union, perhaps. To the union, it’s about the membership, not the kids, so don’t pretend that the union is all about the children.
They support unions and gerrymandering with their ballot measures it appears..so they have no credibility with me…NO on T and No on 23!
Am I reading District 16 correctly? Ann Tornberg, retired teacher, is not considered “friendly” to the SDEA?
That’s “friendly legislators”, it’s only for incumbents. ……. If you’re a Republican and on this list of pro-union friends, you should be ashamed of yourselves ! Please go ahead and change that R to an D anytime soon !
