Alaskans say I will take four years of Walker-Mallott please

Earlier voters in November have decided that they want 4 years of Walker-Mallott.  Question is what is his plan for education, state budget.  He says he wants it balanced how to do it without a state income tax.  He also has a legislature that will not give him what he wants.  He wants to expand medicaid does not have the funds to pay for it.  He wants to tax oil companies more.  Voters do not want a state income tax which is what this ticket preached while running.  Congrats Bill Walker and Byron Mallot you are in charge the next four years. 

Outside Liberal Special Interest Groups want to change law in Alaska check local laws first

First of all congratulations on your successful wins in making the price of food higher in Alaska and prevent Alaska from developing its own local interest.  When you place signs you may want to check local laws when placing signs.  You can not stick them at local municipal parks or on light poles.  You may only place political signs on a persons property after you gotten permission from the property owner to do so.  You can not place them in a right a way of a major street or intersection.  Just remember when you want to change the law make sure you obey the law while you are doing it. 

Special Education students will suffer under Washington Measure 1351

Recently the Washington Education Association was able to snowball the voters of the state of Washington.  It is interesting that as a result of this measure.  Special education students will suffer because in order to get the class sizes to a reasonable level.  They will have offer less classes for special education students.  Since 2007 Washington State Legislature was put in less funds for special education funding.  Small rural school district just like before 1978 had the option again of refusing special needs students due to not able to have enough space in the schools.  This measure will make it harder for special needs students to receive an education.  Will school districts do before 1981 put all their special needs students in one area of the school district instead of allowing the special needs student to attend the school that is closer to the student.  I remember before the 1981 school year I had to attend Snoqualmie Elementary even though I lived in North Bend.  This measure is a bad deal for special needs students will result in less learning.  School districts will have to pass levies every six months to fund this demand.  Which is interesting unless they change the rules that a school district can pass one levy a year if it successful passes.  Hopefully this measure will be altered in two to allow school districts to be able to not forgot about the special needs students.
