What happened… seven years ago. I think the year is extremely relevant and important to include in our current climate. But then people wouldn’t click the article as much, nor would this post have any comments.

Pot, meet kettle. 🤣
That’s not about conservatives or liberals. That’s politicians in general. All of them. Hell, it’s humans in general.

I stand by the clickbait claim. The article content seems factual. The title, however, is deliberately vague.

An accurate title would have indicated the year of the offense or the positions affected. Otherwise the news source is just capitalizing on the post-2020 panic over election fraud. Which they are allowed to do, I guess. They’re for profit, after all. But I just don’t think we need to reward them for shitty clickbait tactics. They knew what they were doing with that headline.
Honestly, why else would OP post if? Does anyone actually care about a local election for Board of Ed from 2015?

Nice clickbait headline, OP.
2015 election for board of ed and finance lol. But sure, let’s feed the MAGA trolls.

Gotta wait til the race has been declared, bud. Not all precincts reporting even now, at 6am. 95% in and she’s ahead. But need those last few in a vote this close…

NYT has a 3% lead but with only 1% voting. It’s too early to make any predictions. This race will be close.
Now Blumenthal and Levy… that we can predict lol.

I’m not sure that will be decided tonight even. Might be too close to call - at least for me, who will be asleep by 10 🤣

I don’t know if it will fit the bill but I’ve always liked Kibberia in Danbury. My friend swears by Royal Mediterranean in Bethel.

It’s not the same link. It’s different articles all reporting the exact same poll.

You realize the source is Fox News, right? And that it’s national media where Hayes’ name is recognizable and Logan’s is not…

I mean the source is Fox News so I’m not sure you can claim liberal media bias. Her name is recognizable and she is the incumbent. It’s a national news article and no one nationally knows Logan. But of a reach to get annoyed about that…

I think she got linked to AOC and her crew early and that label hasn’t gotten shook. That’s like catnip for even moderate Republicans. I actually really like her and think she’s down to earth. Love that she has a background in education.

Reply to Remote high school or Dropout? by SouthWindsorHS2024
The thing is, none of this adds up. And I know you’ll tell me it does, but I promise you, you don’t have the full story.
Teachers are mandated reporters. If we have even a suspicion that a student is in danger, we are legally required to report it. To not report it is a felony and we could be prosecuted. So, relax. You don’t know what happened, but you are not in danger. If you were the school would be legally bound to remove the individual. Even if you thought it was an admin cover up, I can assure you that teachers wouldn’t simply keep quiet, knowing a dangerous individual is on the staff.
You are leaping to more conclusions than you can count.
And also, online high schools are generally a joke and dropping out will significantly affect your future. Is it really worth it? Get switched out of the class and move on.

What a dumb headline. A multi-year trend based on last week’s tragedy…? Clickbait.

Reply to Connecticut is full of cop haters. No wonder everyone is leaving the state in droves. No respect for the two slain officers shown here multiple times today. by Ayn_rands_queef
I wasn’t a fan of what I was seeing on here either. I’m not what they like to call a ‘bootlicker’ and I think police systems need significant reform and oversight. BUT I can see the tragedy here for these two individual men that lost their lives. By all accounts, they were the kind of cops we need more of, not less of.
But regardless, this is literally Reddit. It is absolutely ridiculous to assume that the posts and comments in this sub represent the entire state of nearing 4 million people. Relax. 🙄

Sure. And that’s why there’s an article on it. But the year it took place is essential information.
Listen, I’m not changing my mind that the article and post are clickbait capitalizing on the extreme political climate. So we’re wasting our time here. Have a good day.
