I’ll be writing more later, but this will give you plenty to read if you’re doing some research on the candidates. I’ve met Thurmond a few times, and will just add one thing that doesn’t come through from all those articles: he just gets it. If you’ve ever had a conversation with someone about a topic where you have both expertise and passion, then you know when you’re talking to someone who shares your knowledge and dedication. Thurmond had many years of experience as a school social worker before entering politics, and you can tell that his personal experiences as a student, parent, and social worker have informed his career as a policy maker at the school district, city, and state level.
