Franklin & Coronado Candidates at EPISD Forum

Carlos Sierra came up in this candidate forum and he is going to be one of the primary reasons that Loweree is not re-elected, although not the only reason. Sierra once again proves to be a major boat anchor around any campaign he touches.

Here is video of the Franklin and Coronado candidates vying for seats on the EPISD Board of Trustees.

District 6, which is the Franklin area features a race between entrepreneur Freddy Klayel-Avalos, former teacher Gary Berglund, and business owner Mike Hicks.

Klayel-Avalos is endorsed by both major teacher associations in EPISD - the El Paso Federation of Teachers and the El Paso Teachers' Association.

Gary Berglund is not in this video because he chose not to attend. Arrangements were made to ensure  that Berglund could attend and he was made aware of the accommodations made in order for him to attend and he still chose to not attend.



The District 7 race, which is the Coronado area, features a match-up between incumbent appointed Trustee Mickey Loweree and business owner Daniel Call.

Mr. Call was endorsed by both major teacher associations in EPISD - the El Paso Federation of Teachers and the El Paso Teachers' Association.

Because she's the incumbent, Loweree was asked an additional question and it was related to Carlos Sierra. Loweree was forced to defend why she has Sierra helping her out and well, it didn't go well.
