On AM 1620 This Morning



I'll be on the the Pensacola Morning News this morning discussing the canvassing board.

The segment will air at 6:37 and topics of discussion will include:

--what the role of the canvassing board is

--what canvassing board members may or may not do politically

--why I have chosen NOT to resign from this board--but rather I will abstain from participating temporarily pending the disposition of a claim made that I should not participate on this board

--why I believe the claim made against me on this matter is specious and will be dismissed in short order

--why it is perfectly acceptable for me to make a campaign contribution (which I have done for a candidate this cycle that is intelligent, steady, reliable, measured, positive, respectful to students and who has a tremendous resume as a long-serving Federal Government Employee) and why this contribution I have made does not preclude my service on the canvassing board.

--what actively supporting a campaign is under the law

--how "fake" news and inaccurate depictions of events can create these "fake" controversies

--how supporting ballot initiatives/issues ( I support the appointed superintendent of schools issue that will be on the ballot) does NOT preclude my participation on the canvassing board
