===Wingnut Slate===
This year's school board election has been targeted for takeover (as have [[Trumpist coup maneuvers/school boards|others across the country]]) by anti-education, anti-democratic interests with [[US Republican Party|GOP]] backing, who have put forward a slate of far-right candidates under the slogan "Better Board, Better Schools". Because of the non-partisan nature of this race (as set by state law, which has nonetheless been selectively countermanded in some GOP-heavy counties but not in any that lean Democratic), liberal and progressive voters who often default to Democratic candidates may accidentally vote for one or more of these wingnut ringers, as some of them sound very plausible on the surface.

This year's school board election in Durham, [[Trumpist coup maneuvers/school boards|as in other areas in the US]], has been targeted for takeover by [[US Republican Party|GOP]]-funded anti-education, anti-democratic interests who have put forward a slate of far-right candidates under the slogan "Better Board, Better Schools".
It is therefore important to know who is who in this race.
