Gopal Ponangi will be in the runoff against Jared Elad in June. We found Tammy Meinershagen’s comments about Gopal to be very interesting:

1) He failed to balance the ISD budget

2) He failed to communicate to voters “why” they needed the bond aka $1 billion

3) He is responsible for the failures at FISD, and she questions how he can lead the city better.

4) Tammy stated that the citizens don’t have confidence in FISD leadership.

She only left off his absence at most meetings and major votes, which we posted about previously (obtained in a PIR)

We’re curious if Tammy would say she’s responsible for the failure of the residents not understanding Proposition A and B for the Frisco Center For The Arts? Did she fail to communicate well? Does that mean she’s not equipped to help run our city? At the end of the day, that is what she implied about Gopal, right?

It will be interesting in the runoff to see if Tammy aligns herself with Gopal when she thinks he was an absolute failure on Frisco ISD school board? It might be more interesting to see if Gopal has a change of heart and supports Burt Thakur! It would make sense considering Tammy spoke so ill of John Keating and Angelia Pelham, who are huge Gopal supporters.

Oh, where will the yellow brick road take us in June?
