      Really depends on what part of the States one is in. Where I live the MAGAs have figured out that local elections have low turnout out and the positions have considerable power. Those too extreme to make it in state level politics have been winning these offices and wreaking havoc with anti-woke policies.

          Agreed, OOP is obviously totally out of touch with reality, but my schoolboard is like 3 legacy centrists who are mostly concerned with whether or not the middle schools can have pools or is that too expensive, 3 moms for liberty demons who want to inspect the new math textbooks for hidden CRT agendas and a tiebreaker seventh member, the legacy Republican member who looks like the centrists but never opposed anything the MFL Demons suggest.

          It’s a truly evil entity.
