JoAnn Tolentino is a far-right candidate running for Northshore School Board Director, District 4. In a since-deleted Facebook post, Tolentino admitted she attended the January 6th Insurrection, referring to it as an exercise of her freedom of speech. Not surprisingly, she is recommended as the "best choice" in this race by the King County GOP. JoAnn Tolentino is an extremist and is out of touch with the needs of the Northshore School District.

Sehaj Dhaliwal is also challenging incumbent Sandy Hayes for the Northshore School Board. She is a product of the Northshore School District and is running to bring her perspective as a young leader and recent graduate. She recognizes the need to continue funding mental health services, extracurriculars, and school programs as essential services to benefit both students and teachers. Dhaliwal also brings public service experience in many fields to this role.

We appreciate Sehaj Dhaliwal's vision, passion, and progressive values. However, we would like to see more specific solutions or policies she would implement if elected. We recommend re-electing Sandy Hayes due to her progressive work on the board and her endorsements.
