Todd gained the most Republican and Democrat votes during the recent Franklin County election to serve as a Greencastle Antrim School Director but due to serving honorably in the US military and complicated laws dated 1939 Todd has learned that he cannot hold this position if he was elected in a partisan election. Todd however can be appointed to the position and this petition is being circulated to ask our board to appoint Todd to the position of School Director for a 2-year term. Thank you for your consideration.
I really thought this might just fizzle out but the way people are showing up for Todd right now is just wild and honestly kind of overwhelming in the best way possible. It seems like everyone is finally understanding that these old 1939 laws should not stop a qualified veteran from serving his own community.

Todd Kirkwood won more votes than any other canidate. To deny him the position he was elected to would show a total disregard for the democratic process and a slap in the face to the voters who voted for him. Any action other than a board member to appoint Todd into the position the voters intended, would bring to question the integrity of that member.

He had more votes than anyone else so the board should do what is right and appoint him to the position. He showed his interest in working for our children and worked hard to win those votes! In my eyes appointing anyone else who do not have any interest to run in the first place would be blatant corruption and disregard for all the voters!

Military service and community service go hand in hand. There is no better candidate than Todd Kirkwood to fill the open position on the school board. He earned the position, deserves the position, and should be allowed to serve in the position.

We are missing an excellent opportunity for a good man to be apart of the board. I also cannot believe that this "technicality" was not brought to his attention sooner. Todd is a man of honor, serving our country, and cares about our community. I consider it a privilege to know him and his family!

Todd Kirkwood should be appointed to the school board. He was voted on and a technicality caused his resignation. Good school board members are needed and I feel he would be a great asset to the board.

Please do the right thing and appoint Todd Kirkwood to his position on the school board. I need you to restore my faith in my community and show me that my vote really counted for something.
