Before my retirement, I witnessed each and every school year thousands of dollars worth of textbooks, workbooks, school material and supplies thrown into dumpsters by administrators and teachers. Many books and materials were brand new.

Even more was thrown out when a new principal came to a school.

Accountability for all spending and material inventory needs to be implemented immediately within the Clark County School District. Principals need to decide to waste money or hire teachers. The district needs to stop wasting money paid by Nevada taxpayers.

Why not invest in programs that have success stories and that work rather than fund the same old, same old system that has not been successful and will continue to flounder?

Donald Trump and Sam Brown are extremists. These are two men who would sooner throw your vote away if it’s not for them.

These so-called CBO budget experts, if in the private sector, would be put out on the streets for their incompetence.

A woman has the right to an abortion up to 24 weeks. In fact, no one in Nevada can take away the right to an abortion, including Mr. Brown.

Isn’t it fascinating that signatures are excruciatingly validated and litigated when it comes to appearing on the ballot, but ignored once the actual voting takes place?
