Nebraska: Editorial opposing Northwest School Board

Here's an editorial in the Grand Island Independent opposing the recall efforts against Northwest School Board Members Dan Leiser and Robin Schutt over management questions and claims of a lack of responsiveness, plus complaints about the district boundaries.

The editorial focuses on the reasons for recalls, claiming that:

Recall elections can serve an important purpose. They can remove someone from office who has broken the law or who has done something unethical.

However, recalls are not meant to remove someone just because of a disagreement over policy. To do that, there are elections. If you disagree with decisions someone has made while in office, don’t vote for them.
