Speaking of "at taxpayer expense", the Port Townsend School District chose to run an election with their two levies being the only things on the ballot.

That means that PTSD will bear the entire cost of this election.

If PTSD had, instead, just waited a couple of months until the next regular election, they would have saved a great deal of that scarce taxpayer money that they insist they need.

But of course that's not how this board and superintendent think -- more people tend to vote yes when a levy is on a ballot with few items, and playing the odds that way by putting schools' levy measures on their own ballot is a very cynical tactic.
