It’s a sad day in this country when teenagers are forced to stand outside polling locations begging voters to save them from the left’s insanity. Early voting has started in Virginia, and as voters head to the polls, high school students—many of whom are not yet old enough to vote—are making their voices heard about important Loudoun County school board races.
Their top priority? Safety from what they describe as radical transgender ideology.
Students have been seen handing out brochures and speaking with voters outside polling locations, advocating for candidates who oppose the transgender policy (Policy 8040) in the Loudoun County School District (LCSD). Four contested school board seats are at stake in the Algonkian, Broad Run, Dulles, and Sterling Districts.
### Algonkian District
Incumbent April Moore Chandler supports Policy 8040, which allows students to use the bathroom or locker room that aligns with their gender identity rather than their biological sex. She is being challenged by Matt Malone, who opposes the policy and advocates for its repeal, citing concerns about safety and privacy.
### Broad Run District
Ross Svenson supports the transgender policy and has even taken legal action by suing the state on behalf of transgender students. His opponent, Samuel Yan, opposes Policy 8040, arguing that facilities should be based on biological sex to protect safety and privacy. Yan also calls for the policy’s repeal.
### Dulles District
Santos Muñoz is openly opposed to the transgender policy and has publicly called for its repeal.
### Sterling District
Incumbent Arben Istrefi supports Policy 8040, stating that school districts must protect transgender rights. Amy Riccardi, his challenger, opposes the policy and advocates for repealing it in order to provide safe, sex-based facilities.

In January, President Donald Trump signed an Executive Order titled “Ending Radical Indoctrination in K-12 Schooling,” which defines “social transition” to include policies allowing students to use bathrooms or locker rooms opposite their biological sex. The order notes that allowing males access to female-designated private spaces may contravene federal laws, including Title IX. Schools risk losing federal funding if policies like LCSD’s remain in place.
The election advocacy by LCSD students highlights a critical moment in the ongoing national debate over transgender ideology, student safety, and privacy in public schools. American teenagers are handing out sample ballots, chanting slogans supporting specific school board candidates, and sharing personal stories about their discomfort with transgender-inclusive bathroom and locker room policies.
Many of these students are girls under 18, placing them in a vulnerable position. They are essentially pleading for adults to intervene on their behalf.
This is a crisis. Young people directly impacted by these far-left school policies lack the legal power to influence change through voting and must rely on persuasion and public appeals for protection.
At its core, this issue is about protecting American youth who are old enough to experience the harmful effects of these policies but too young to vote them away.
