Facebook group elpasospeak

February 25, 2019

We got some negative feedback from someone on the facebook group site elpasospeak.

The person was upset that we had not responded to a request that he made.

That group receives a link to each post that we publish here on this blog.

We do not moderate or read the facebook group, primarily because of the amount of time it would add to the daily process.

Please correspond with brutusep@yahoo.com if you have something that you would like to communicate privately.

We deserve better

The games continue

Our recently resigned EPISD board president’s resignation occurred just after the closing date for candidates to file for his seat.

If he really did not know that he was in the wrong district and he found out as he was filing for re-election he could have filed to run in the proper district.

Hard to deny

Good government oxymoron made this comment earlier this week:

Did Hatch vote in the election he ran in?

Not all candidates show up on the ballot, only candidates running in the district you are registered to vote in.

If Hatch voted in the election he ran in then surely would have noticed that he was NOT on the ballot.

Ysleta outperforms other districts

February 21, 2019

This graphic came from a recent EPISD finance and administration committee meeting.

Ysleta actually has a higher tax rate than EPISD.  YISD is at $1.455 per hundred while EPISD is at $1.31.  However they have been lowering it over the past five years.

We deserve better
