“EVERYONE in southern Santa Barbara county needs to watch this video about our school board election,” he wrote on his Facebook page. “A dangerous and privileged slate with a dog whistle of a name “Save Our Schools” is trying to win a majority on the board.”
One irony of the campaign controversy is that Alvarado, Ford, Ulloa and Munoz all are liberal Democrats, with few substantive differences among and between them on education policies.

A negative social media ad, produced and posted by a key group backing Ismael Ulloa and Rose Munoz, has introduced a sudden note of bitter acrimony into a school board race that has been singularly civil.The 90-second online spot, put up by the political arm of the Latino advocacy organization CAUSE, targets the “Save Our Schools slate,” rival board contenders Mark Alvarado and Kate Ford, who are backed by an alliance of parents often referred to as SOS.
The spot conflates several race-based education issues and an infamous episode of digital threats of violence aimed at female students, combined with some inaccurate information and misleading allegations, into a mix of insinuation about SOS and innuendo about its endorsed candidates. It has been shared widely on social media by allies of CAUSE Action Fund, including the local Democratic Party, since being posted on Facebook last week.
“We’re trying to make sense of a complex race that has a lot of layers – we just wanted to connect all those dots,” Frank Rodriguez, policy and communications associate for CAUSE(Central Coast Alliance United for a Sustainable Economy) told Newsmakers, in defending the ad.
