Which is worse Brenda Priestly Jackson's questions or her texts?

2. Provide the names and year built of all public schools in Duval County from 1970 until 1985. Irrelevant and something she could look up on her own

3. Provide the names and year built of all public schools in Duval County from 2000 until 2019.

13. What is the projected revenue annually if the qualified electors in Duval County vote to approve the referendum, Ordinance 2019-0380?  This questioned has been answered.

Wow, stunningly bad and this from someone who was on the school board and should know better than most what their needs are and that they don't work for the city council.

If this is what passes for leadership Jacksonville we are in big, big, trouble.

And this is her tweet in response to former Mayor Godbold's scathing indictment of the school board, it is pretty reprehensible as well.
