Arnold quibbles:

 

"We have a constitution, and the school district is not above the Idaho
State Constitution even if a majority of the people that vote cast ballots
for it and wish to ignore the rights of the minority that are protected by
it."

 

And yet the question remains unanswered:  Why has it taken fifteen years to
pursue an "action" that (by Arnold's judgment) was so evident?

"I think one of the best ways to support education is to make successful
private schools like Logos prosper through tax exemption."

Andreas,

 

You are wrong, it is the job of the judicial branch to determine if an
election was held legally or not. That is in part why it exists. We don't
vote on segregation in the schools like in the 1950s, we don't vote on if
girls can get a public education, as Afghanistan does. MSD is only
authorized to hold certain kinds of elections, not any kind of election it
wants for whatever reason it wants. We are not an absolute democracy. We
have a constitution, and the school district is not above the Idaho State
Constitution even if a majority of the people that vote cast ballots for it
and wish to ignore the rights of the minority that are protected by it. 

 

Best,

 

Donovan
