I'm just super glad Brown did not get in. Her husband is bad enough o Council. This girl is a multiculturalist, someone who believes in the fracturing of America. What her and her husband want for America would be catastrophic.

Joe Evanowski was in attendance. He was interviewed by the other local paper's reporter. I believe the board made a very wise choice. I am anxious to see how Mr. Evanowski settles into his new position. Good luck to him.

So you are not down with Brown because she is a multi-culturalist? What does being a multiculturalist have to do with the "fracturing of America?" What is your definition of a multiculturalist? Aren't we all multicultural? Or are you specifically referring to black people being married to white people because you are a racist........

Hope he is ready to answer the two thirds - plus majority that does not want to be in the EASD. He will have his hands full from all of Rville residents... that's for sure. Be ready to answer many questions from us Joe.

Nice guy... but does not represent us at all.
Rville loses

This is the man who has fought tooth and nail against Riegelsville's VAST majority to make sure the taxes have hit 50% over a 3 year period. He is one of 3 families that have fought against Riegelsville moving to Palisades in BUCKS COUNTY!! That's 61 kids, 400 homes and 2% of the entire budget for 9000 kids. It took 2 shady votes to ensure he was pushed into office by the other crooks on the board. BIG DEAL!

This is the same representation that Riegelsville had for years. None. Over 2/3 of the town signed petitions to get out of Easton and into the county they live in. Joe led the charge against this even going to the Palisades school board and expressing how he did not like Palisades. This is a representative of the EASB and nothing more. That's why they picked him. Odd that a huge Easton supporter is afraid to live there isn't it? Racist?

The man ONLY cared about the honor students who are free scholarship bound. That must include the majority then. Oh wait, only 74% graduate at all according to the newspapers. Obviously those are the gifted. Good luck to the students, they'll need it.

Give the man a chance. Maybe with a representative, the school board will actually tax Riegelsville fairy. Because we are not in the same county, we get a 15% increase every time everyone else gets 5%. Between fixing this after Easton got in to Act 72 and other increases, it's been around 50% over 3 years. The school board thinks it's fair because they have no idea what Riegelsville looks like and how few kids - just over 50 - we send them. Maybe he can wake these people up to what a rip off they are.

He probably has a very good reason for not wanting to live in Easton, have you seen that slum? Yuk!
