Let's vote on it

Since we have national, state and countywide elections this November, why not place a non-binding question on the ballot asking if Wake County residents prefer the new neighborhood school policy or the old busing for socioeconomic diversity policy? This way we'll have a clear view of exactly how the majority of the county residents feel, and not just the few who were allowed to and who bothered to vote last November.

If the numbers match the plurality that last November's new school board members attained, perhaps we can all stop all this childish infighting and get down to what's important, the better education of all the students in all the schools.
