What is the point of this poll? Are you trying to get people to cancel their subscriptions? Don't go down the road of the Red Star in KC. I canceled my subscription to that paper to get away from the liberal slant. If it keeps showing up here I bet that I can do without this one too.

I was kind of surprised at Jeff Roe's 40% on this poll. I thought the Task Force did a pretty good job of waiting until the end and then hitting the streets. I really thought Mr. Roe's strategy got a little bit tacky at the end, but that's what negative campaigners do. I hope the district starts working seriously to connect with the public.

Roe used our school district as dry run practice for his big tricks to come in KC and state elections. He is a slimeball opportunist without any regard for the damage he causes. He will soon connect with some so called conservative politician with his impressive resume of dirty tricks. Then poor Funk will lose his golden child.
What exactly was his interest in this little town... or it's children.

Perhaps he represents those tired of endless tax increases with no reduction in wasteful spending.

I find it hilarious that those that complain on wasteful spending of taxpayer money, are the same ones that dont mind wasteful and lavish spending of corporate money...which without regulation is passed on to the consumer. in many instances without choice
