Maynard Drops Out of School Board Race
Asbury Park (03-06-2006) - A source in the Board of Education administrative
offices has reported that Susan Maynard faxed a letter to the office late this
afternoon requesting that her nominating petition for this April's School Board
election be withdrawn.
Maynard, a current school board member was one of seven candidates - including
current School Board President Robert DiSanto - who were running for three full
three-year terms on the nine member school board. Maynard had filed her
nominating petition last Monday less than five minutes before the deadline.
Last year Maynard's husband James Maynard, along with Mamie Moore, filed and
won a law suit against the school board striking down one provision of the
board policy on public participation at school board meetings. The lawsuit was
the culmination of James Maynards' years-long attempt to get someone to listen
to his claims that DiSanto was unfit to be the school board president after
being appointed President two years ago when the board could not reach its own
decision on who would be elected president. Later DiSanto was elected president
by a near-unanimous vote of his fellow board members.
Susan Maynard has often been involved in shouting matches with members of the
public particularly when the issue at hand is DiSanto or gay or lesbian issues.
At one meeting Maynard stormed out of a board meeting when she became too upset
with comments from a member of the public.
