As a retired lifelong teacher and member of teacher organizations, I am embarrassed that the teacher union in Nevada is participating in the effort to shut down the at- large caucus sites. Particularly offensive is the statement that it makes it "too easy" to vote. That is what teachers should be about. If teachers believe that it gives unfair advantage, it seems to me that the better effort would be to ensure easy voting for those citizens they feel are being disenfranchised. At the base of a public school teacher's life is to serve justice and equality. I would ask that you think about your participation in this suit. Does it foster equal voting rights? Does it serve the needs of all citizens of Nevada? Does it really foster Democratic principles?
