Editorial on Tuesday's Primary Election

The Capital Times:

Kelly has not made a credible case for his nomination. Both Silveira and Cole have.

We've been impressed with Cole's ability to mix her deep and thoughtful analysis of education issues with a sense of humor that has been sorely lacking on the board. While she's obviously a very smart and very engaged parent, Cole also has a very quick wit.

Silveira, meanwhile, brings her own impressive record of leadership in local school organizations and her savvy as a scientist who now works as a marketing director for Promega Corporation. She is intimately familiar with the complexities of school boundaries from her work on the West/Memorial boundary task force.

Cole and Silveira both have the capacity to engage this community in a spirited and respectful debate over the direction of Madison's schools.
