And vote the board must. She mis-used her authority tonight to shut off other board members who wanted to speak. She didn't listen to the other board members, because she was thinking about how she was going to get her own way.
Watch the replay of the meeting and you see where she gets lost and doesn't know what to do next.
She was elected as board chair at the end of June, and the board could hold another election at any time and elect someone else to be chair. There are really only two good choices: Lindsay Agostini and Monica Scott.
As a matter of fact, they should hold another election, since Holmes isn't even a legitimate board member.
I wonder what the new Legal Counsel for the District would say, if asked to state the legality of Holmes and McKie being on the board.
Would she make a decision based on the law, or would she make a decision that will preserve her job? And right there is the reason for the school district NOT to have its own, in-house, legal counsel.
But that's a topic for another article.
Does Holmes have the integrity and the humility to learn from tonight's mistakes?
