WB Referendum Promo Video - Informational? or an Advocacy?

I videotaped this at Monday night's West Bend School Board work session (07/28).

This is a promo video that was put together as a tool to use to push the school referendum of $130M. The School Board had the district's attorney lend their approval, assuring us that the video is a portrayal of information and not an "advocacy" for the referendum.

I object.

But don't take MY word for it.

    The DA has already said that this is not advocacy. Do you know the law better than Todd Martens?

    Understood. I simply said "I object." This is my "opinion."
