I hate nonpartisan.

They are not running in any specific category but who do they support? I do not want to vote for a donny or repuke supporter. It is just a lot of work to have to dig for more info on the pamphlet. I am going to be busy with info searching for the next few days.

I'm writing in someone else.....guess he is opposed now. A bunch of them however are nonpartisan opposed and unopposed. For the unopposed I want to find out if they vote Democrat or republican. Same with the opposed. I want to make damn sure they do not support repubs.

I googled the names of every candidate for school board and chose the 3 that support democrats and have been a teacher.

The 1 that got awards from several conservative groups didn't make the cut.

My local city council is non-partisan. The council members, of course, are members of political parties, but do not run as a member of any party. At least two of the members that I know of are Democrats in my very red city, and I believe we had a mayor who was actually a Libertarian Party member.
