Karl Frisch Defeats Anti-LGBTQ Opponent in Va Becomes Only Openly LGBTQ Member of Fairfax County
November 5, 2019
Washington, DC – Karl Frisch defeated his anti-LGBTQ opponent Andrea Bayer tonight, becoming the only openly LGBTQ member of the Fairfax County School Board and one of the few openly LGBTQ elected officials in Fairfax County. Frisch’s opponent had said initiatives to address anti-LGBTQ bullying in schools was “wasting our time” and that the LGBTQ community was “the loudest special interest group.” There are currently just 11 openly LGBTQ elected officials serving in all of Virginia.

Congrats to Karl. I always enjoy his call-in to Stephanie Miller's radio show on Thursdays.
