Editor,

Regrettably, I voted for county Supervisor Corzo, in what was supposed to be an exciting progressive movement and a vision of hope, now has turned into buyer’s remorse.

It is unfortunate that you and other voters did not do your homework when voting for Corzo in the last election. In 2022 she spoke to a group I'm involved in and I was shocked at her level of ineptness. She was asked about her position while on the school board supporting lengthy Covid school closures for kids in the SMFC district (the longest closures in the nation, which Corzo consistently voted to extend.) Her response was that she had recently, in 2022, attended a conference in another state for school board members and it wasn't until then that she learned that other states had done things differently and reopened schools much earlier without disaster. My jaw was on the floor. It was literally HER JOB as a school board member to know these things but she was either lying or did not have a modicum of curiosity regarding how things were handled, and the results, in other areas. (European countries re-opened schools in summer 2020 and didn't have higher Covid death rates than the most strict US states.) Corzo's only concern while on the school board was doing the bidding of the irrational, anti-child teachers unions.

This should have been absolutely disqualifying for BOS, but voters like this letter writer were somehow swayed by "an exciting progressive movement and a vision of hope" (and likely her backstory of being a poor Latina single mom vs big bad white man Charles Stone.) I do hope you and other voters learn from this and vote for more qualified and intelligent candidates in the future.
