Jersey Conservative is now read by thought leaders in key 2024 primary states.

The parental rights blog Chaos and Control has issued a call for school board candidates. The blog provides this checklist for potential candidates:
 
- You must have lived in your town for over a year.
 
- You must be a U.S. Citizen and registered to vote before filing.
 
- Each county has a unique petition that is used for school board candidates to file so reach out to your county clerk to request the actual form.
 
- The deadline to file is July 31st.
 
- Being on the ballot is important. As elections get closer, people pay more attention to the races and decide to run, but the deadline will have already passed to be on the ballot. It is much harder to win as a write-in candidate.
 
- If you have more than one seat up for election, running in a slate with the same slogan can also improve your chances of winning.
 
Barbara Eames of New Jersey Working Together makes these important points:
 
If you're watching what is going on in NJ schools and doing NOTHING about it, you're part of the problem. If you're mad enough to get involved… It is more effective to run as a team, because it takes less time to “clean house” of puppets of the Governor's sick and demented education policy. Talk to someone already on your board. Go to a meeting. Ask questions. And take action NOW!
 
And consider your responsibility as a person of faith - whatever that is - to take a stand against immoral and tyrannical policies inflicted on the citizens of a republic.... before we cease to be one. The future is in YOUR hands, and it will affect YOUR children and grandchildren, if you take NO action.
 
Seth Grossman of Liberty & Prosperity provides these points on why you should be a candidate for your local school board:
 
1.  Just by being an active candidate, you will quickly meet others who share your concerns and learn important information about our public schools.
 
2.  If you win, you will be one of nine people who decide what is taught, how it is taught, and who is hired to teach it at your public schools. You will also gain access to important inside information not available to us now. You will give us a seat at the table so we are not on the menu.
 
3.  Whether you win or lose, you will show the people now running our public schools that many members of the community are not happy with what happened to our public schools, and that we are learning to do what it takes to make the changes that are needed.
 
4.  Whether you win or lose, you will give hope to others who are discouraged by the decline of our public schools and the unsustainable taxes we pay for them.
