I agree with this DNT account of the school board candidate’s forum.

I have my favorites but there is no one I listened to who does not promise to be a great improvement on all the departing board members.

By the way, my buddy sent me the critical sentence in the story explaining that all of the candidates agreed that they wouldn’t have voted to remove Art Johnston. He told me it would make me chortle. In fact, hearing the replies to this question did give me a great sense of satisfaction.

You can watch the entire hour and half of the dialogue on this Trib web page.

The cameras I didn’t see were up above me in a balcony.
