Sometimes you need more than being a parent on the SC. Having an expertise in Law is a plus in my mind.

It's also too bad that the School Committee doesn't make up the demographics of the School System. No minorities and 1 woman.

50.8% to 49.2% or 31 votes.
I was told that a recount would be fruitless.
in 2 locations there were 200 blanks. The sad part is even if you don't care just fill in the bubble.
Sullivan towers alone it was 102 to 102 with 94 blanks

total for ALL school committee = 11,926
must mean 3,285 blanks for school committee city wide - that's 29.17%

Such a truly strange statement. Are you suggesting that candidates for school committee have to meet a demographic qualification before being allowed to take out papers to place themselves on the ballot? Really, how silly that sounds. If the register of elections doesn't get the proper demographic cross-section is he to nullify the election? Nonsense.

Anyhow, the biggest complainers are probably non voters.

And while the vote number wasn't great, remember that the registered voters in Brockton is 45,403 so over 15,000 isn't awful, IMO.

Regarding the voter demographics, a large block of the most vocal, on either side, don't live in COB.
