Kevin Richert of the Idaho Statesman offers a preview of Wednesday's editorial: "Nineteen out of 20, or 95 percent, is worth an A in the classroom. By that measure, Aug. 28 was a very good day for Idaho schools. Voters went to the polls in 20 school districts; in 19, property tax levies or bond issues passed. The lone setback: A $5 million construction bond in Southeast Idaho’s North Gem School District received 66 percent support, falling just two votes shy of the two-thirds supermajority required for passage. ... Across the state, the voters spoke. Idahoans committed their money — collected from the perennially unpopular property tax — to K-12. They displayed their willingness to take care of their own, and support local schools: a powerful message in a state with a tight-fisted state Legislature that funds per-student school spending at a paltry No. 50 in the nation."

Question: Do you think the average Idaho voter values education more than the average Idaho legislator?
