Random Wednesday notes...

1) A foggy window is made of glass - but it's still hard to see through.  We've talked for a long time about how transparency is important because it is the first step toward accountability.  This is absolutely the truth. While we do have the Kentucky Open Records Act (which we have made extensive use of here) in our commonwealth, we need to make sure that our transparency is transparent - that we have effective and responsive transparency. This video lays out why that is important.



2) FreedomKentucky.org, our government transparency and accountability website is on the cusp of hitting 1 million views!  This is exciting as FreedomKentucky.org has become a resource for Kentucky's citizenry to access information about their elected officials, schools, state performance data and also provide them with the opportunity to voice their own contribution!

3) Ungraded primary performance! - Check out this recently contributed article by education analyst Richard Innes.
