Three-peat: Albemarle County Schools block local GOP candidate’s web site; allow Democrat opponent’s

In a nearly unbelievable display of institutional hubris, Albemarle County Public Schools (ACPS) has been caught a third time in recent months blocking conservative candidates online, while allowing access to their Democrat counterparts.

First, it was the Governor’s race: Republican Winsome Earle-Sears (blocked) vs. Abigail Spanberger (allowed).

Next, it was High School political groups: High School Republican Federation of Virginia (blocked) vs. Virginia High School Democrats (allowed).

Now, it has been discovered that ACPS network “filters” are playing favorites with local politics, as well.

In the race for Albemarle County Board of Supervisors Samuel Miller District, ACPS internal programming is blocking the site of Republican Scott Smith while allowing unfettered access to the URL of his Democrat opponent, Fred Missel.

The following screenshots, which were provided to The Schilling Show, illustrate the issue:

Students, parents, faculty, and staff have contacted The Schilling Show over these most egregious exposures of political bias—and out of concern for the blatant abuse of  taxpayer dollars and trust. Albemarle County Public Schools, Albemarle County School Board, and Superintendent Matt Haas EdD must do better in serving ALL of their students, not just the politically expedient majority.
