With the May 17 election for a Los Angeles Unified School District seat still just under three weeks away, both candidates are desperate and quite frankly, pathetic. The calls from volunteers who can barely put together a sentence are relentless, and even worse, the number of trees that have been killed to put together mailers.
We finally decided to vote--not out of respect or warmth for either candidate, but because we vote by absentee and after skipping last month’s election, we did not want to put that convenience anywhere near jeopardy. While technically the candidates are not responsible for the sleaze and lies that end up in our mailbox, neither have shown any accountability. While all the mailers go straight to the recycling bin, I could not resist taking a photo of this mailer showing Luis Sanchez’s head superimposed on someone’s bathrobe shot. According to Bennett Kayser’s minions, Luis Sanchez has been living hog. In Kayser’s case, however, you cannot put lipstick on a pig. In fairness, however, pigs and hogs should not be maligned and compared to these candidates. Let’s just say Keyser and his teacher union cronies, brimming with entitlement, lost a couple votes.

Luis Sanchez in his bathrobe and Photoshop glory
Leon. Please reconsider. Kayser can put together the most ambitious green agenda imaginable: gardens, composting, EEI. On the issues he’s light years ahead. Sanchez has done nothing. Kayser? He was both a science & health teacher; he gets Jamie Oliver. I get Bennett.

Too late I already voted. And if I’m considering someone for a school board, I don’t care about composting. Both candidates are despicable and the only reason we voted was to make sure we don’t lose our ability to vote absentee (since we missed the March election, a first for both.
Perhaps you should rein in your teachers’ union cronies–those mailers were over the top and just revolting.
