More on community college race and race

So in the past two hours I have had one call, a text, and an e-mail on my post below about the role of race in the election of our Community College Trustee.

1) I think Rick Kirkwood is great. I love the guy. He did a great job as City Manager.  The reality is that the electorate doesn't know this.  The people that read this blog may know it but the family that lives across the street from me doesn't know it.  They don't know who Rick is and they don't know who the City Manager is.

2) See this link here for the election results from last November.  Calmes won a precinct and almost won a couple more.  That is crazy. See link here.

She got more than 41% of the vote. No campaign. No ballot statement. No community service.

3) Despite how hard Xavier, Cirenio, and Rick work they will still have very low name ID.

4) I think Rick is a great guy with a tremendous background but that is not why he is going to win.

I would love to be wrong but this is just the way I see it.
