Enumclaw School Board
There are two conservatives seeking to replace Jennifer Kent in Enumclaw School Board, Director District 4. This race has descended into accusations between the candidates of hacking, PDC violations, and professional misconduct.
Scott Mason is a retired Boeing employee and foster parent who is running on a vague platform to cut some funding to our students. He is a conservative though his campaign veers less conspiracy-based than his opponent.
Jimmy Stewart is a Seattle Police Department officer running a far-right campaign to install far-right ideas in our schools. He has the support of a local, conservative political group and neglected to share a voters' guide statement with the public. He has been accused of numerous police violations at the SPD of which The Courier-Herald reported “Stewart has been involved in at least 16 various Office of Police Accountability investigations into policy violations between 2014 and 2021, all of them minor.” If elected, he would bring misinformation, fear-mongering, and MAGA policy to the school board.
There are no good candidates in this race, though Mason is less problematic. Vote for Mason or write in a candidate of your choice for Enumclaw School Board, Director District 1
