"Meet the new boss, same as the old boss."
The Who's Won't Get Fooled Again has become shorthand for elections that promise change but deliver more of the same. That's the lyric that kept coming to mind as I looked at the results of this year's LAUSD school board races.
As a parent, I know that school board decisions shape children's futures in ways that last far beyond election day. As someone who follows politics closely, I also know that accountability only works when voters have meaningful choices. Yet another election came and went with the status quo largely intact.
My latest article explores why incumbents continued to win despite controversy, why so few challengers emerged, and what that means for the future of public education in Los Angeles.
I'd love to hear whether you think local elections are getting the attention they deserve.

Despite scandal, mismanagement, and public frustration, LAUSD’s incumbents sailed through another election untouched.
"Meet the new boss, same as the old boss." — The Who
Despite scandal, questions about oversight, and growing public frustration, LAUSD's incumbents emerged from the 2026 election cycle virtually untouched.
Why?
In my latest article, I examine why meaningful challengers failed to emerge, how unions and charter school politics influenced the races, and why voter engagement remains one of the biggest obstacles to accountability in the nation's second-largest school district.
Whether you follow Los Angeles politics, care about public education, or simply wonder why institutions can be so resistant to change, I hope you'll give it a read.

LAUSD voters are heading to the polls at a moment of uncertainty for the nation's second-largest school district.
With layoffs looming, Superintendent Carvalho on paid leave while under federal investigation, and ongoing debates about charter school oversight, the next school board will face enormous challenges.
In my latest article, I explain why I'm endorsing Ankur Patel in Board District 4 and Dr. Rocío Rivas in Board District 2. I also discuss the importance of special education advocacy, transparency, and accountability as the district navigates the years ahead.
With layoffs, investigations, and weak oversight, LAUSD voters face critical choices in Tuesday’s election.
