Wait How Is That Fair?

James Lech, who withdrew from the race and endorsed another candidate, was allowed to participate in a District Nine school board candidate forum yesterday:

The forum didn’t include a full representation of District 9’s candidates. Only three of the five contenders were present — Alan Coverstone, Jim Lech and Lee Limbird. Lech has endorsed Limbird and asked voters to consider him withdrawn from the race, though his name will appear on the ballot.

Of the audience members who participated, questions about rezoning dominated comments. The audience clapped when the question of newly elected board members reconsidering the matter came up.

Neither Coverstone nor Limbird, however, indicated a willingness to do so. After the forum, both Coverstone and Limbird said they believed other matters should be considered first.
