Ehhhh yeah, unless elected officials manage to screw a lot of non-constituents out of a decent education. It's been done before.
As I see it, I don't want tax dollars going to pictorial-polling for people who never learned to read, but I don't want people who grew up in shitty educational districts having no way to change that situation for the better.
