Election Commission Complaint Process

I have been contacted numerous times over the last couple of days by angry parents wanting to know if it was legal for the school to use the automated calling system to urge a 'No' vote, sending home flyers with the kids, or teachers and aides urging the children to tell their parents to vote 'No'.

My read on the answer to all is- absolutely not.

The complaint form is here-

It is a very simple process whereby you fill out the form, have it signed by the Town Clerk and mail it in- and they take it from there.

That's your BOE/PTO- by hook or crook. Last time I checked Woodstock was still part of the United States.

    Thank you admin. I thought that it was inappropriate for the PTO to be taking a political position and using our kids and taxpayer-funded robo-call capabilities to push it. I wonder how many PTO members are actually knowledgeable of all the issues. Have you ever seen any of them at the BOE meetings or visiting your site?

    I don't know these women, but I know everyone I've seen at regular BOE meetings. The 'Kool-Aid' budget meetings draw a bit more, so hard to say. No way to tell if they visit the site. As far as their knowledge of the issues, the BOE was noticed and BOE members are part of the PTO...therefore, no excuse.

    I posted the two web sites at the Hate Cafe but I don't think it will be published. Becki and John hate the truth!
