Trangender student Andy Moreno wasn't among the three finalists for homecoming queen at North Dallas High School announced Monday, according to her sister, Daisy Moreno.
Daisy Moreno told Instant Tea that according to poll watchers and friends on the counting committee, Andy received more votes than at least one of the three finalists. However, based on the principal's previous decision, school officials didn't allow votes for Andy to count.
If a student has enough votes and they are not entering for a joke then they should be allowed to compete with the other girls/boys.
I guess the silver-lining is that the kids who voted for Andy are the ones who are actually going to inherit this world.
Perhaps the teacher wants to teach the kids the realities of democracy.
