It's is an off-year as far as elections go, and so you may not be aware that three Jeffco school board seats are open.
On a five member board, this means control of the board is at stake. If you've been following the news, you've probably heard about the disruptions and problems caused in Douglas County and Adams 12 by the election of unqualified and extremist candidates.
Fortunately, here in Jeffco, we have three stellar candidates running this year. They are:
Tonya Aultman-Bettridge in District 1
Gordan "Spud" Van de Water in District 2
Jeff Lamontagne in District 5
Although board members represent specific districts, all board members are elected at large, so your vote count, even though downtown Lakewood is in District 4.
