Meet the Candidates

Town Talk: A conversation with Al Gunn, a write-in candidate for Warren County School Board, Fork District

Published

on

In this Meet the Candidates session, our publisher Mike McCool speaks with Al Gunn, a write-in candidate for the Warren County School Board, Fork District.

He was recruited by pro-family education advocates too late to be on the ballot, so he is a “write-in” candidate. However, he won the endorsement of the Republican Party at its “School Board Candidates Forum.”

Al says, “No to critical race theory, gender activism and anti-American values, and yes to preparing students for good jobs and teaching how to think, not what to think.”

Find out more about Al Gunn on his Facebook page.
