Letters to the editor: Voters asked to support May bond election
I am a former LCI teacher, and current LCJH parent. Over the past several months, I’ve worked with many other community members to study the current facility needs of the LCM school district.

A significant slice of Hillary Clinton's supporters -- that is, moderate Democrats -- might prefer McCain over Obama, or so I speculated a few weeks back. It was a hunch based on conversations and some suggestive but hardly definitive poll numbers.
