You may want to get your facts straight before you boast sir.
First of all, any claims made by the candidate are solely his. You'll have to speak to him about those. I didn't follow superintendent Perkins' career so I'll avoid comment on that.
I've only spoken to Mr. Wingerter once, at the board meeting I previously mentioned. I heard about his candidacy a few months back via http://www.stltoday.com/suburban-journals/illinois/news/article_0272e773-6189-50e1-959d-131460be0ecc.html and began asking around about these young guys running. Clearly I was biased in favor of them due to my dislike of the current board. I spoke with him and heard great things which I then passed on to this board. Nothing more, nothing less.
As for your claim that I was incorrect in saying he was the only candidate I noticed at the January 25th board meeting: you attempted to disprove my claim by quoting a link from the minutes of the...January 11th board meeting? Two different meetings my friend. Clear enough?
