All politics are local. QAnon candidate running for local school board in SE PA, hiding extremism

My apologies for the Facebook link, but this appears to be the central gathering point of those calling out and opposing her insane views. She was at the Capitol, supports QAnon, says BLM are terrorists, Islamophobic, etc. Absolutely disgusting.

Unfortunately they don't show up. I still think we should have one national election day. It has everything on it, you can't ignore the school board or city council if you want to vote for the national candidates. All of these small elections guarantee lack of participation.

I have been unable to find a list of endorsed candidates from the teacher's union, so I often have to rely on the local chamber of commerce (and rule out those candidates that are approved by them), or find any social media and see if there are any known politicians endorsing them and vote based on whether I approve of the endoring politician.
