Ruth's List endorses School Board candidates as check on Ron DeSantis' 'extremist agenda'

School Board races in Florida are the latest partisan battleground in recent years, especially given that recent rounds of redistricting have made many General Elections moot.

The latest indication of that trend: Ruth’s List Florida is endorsing “five women running for school board seats across four counties from Duval to Broward.”

“School Board races are where the rubber meets the road for communities in Florida,” said Christina Diamond, CEO of Ruth’s List Florida. “There is no greater testament to the dedication of the hardworking women running for state and local office in Florida than those of them that are running for school board, many of them against Moms for Liberty-backed candidates and DeSantis-appointed Republicans.”

The endorsed candidates include: Nadine Ebri, Duval County School Board District 1; Sarah Mannion, Duval County School Board District 7; Avanese Taylor, Brevard County School Board District 4; Francesca Wernisch, Palm Beach County School Board District 1; and Maura Bulman, Broward County School Board District 1

Diamond says these candidates are “fighting on the frontlines of nationwide culture wars that are being fought right here in our own backyards in Florida — often at the expense of our children, public school teachers, and parents.
