Teen Titan Takes Over Town’s School Board on Back of Father’s Name

He can’t buy cigarettes, unless he signed up for the military. He can’t drink at a bar, unless he wants to be an illegal drinker. But he can order lethal force around, and he’s only 18. He’s also, apparently, a member of a local political family, so that helps…like…a lot, or so I hear.
He’s a school board member now, so his brilliant 18-year-old mind can contribute to determining the exact moral constructs your child may or may not be exposed to in your local government school. YAY DEMOCRACY!

18-year-old becomes one of the youngest elected officials in Burlington County
Nick Pawylzyn Jr. is one of the youngest elected officials in Burlington County. FOX 29’s Lauren Dugan spoke with him Monday night.
BURLINGTON COUNTY, N.J. – Nick Pawylzyn Jr. is one of the youngest elected officials in Burlington County. Now a high school senior, he spent the majority of his 18 years at New Hanover School…..
“At the end of the day, if you want change, you must be the change,” Nick explained.
They needed to write in Jr. because his dad, Nick Pawylzyn, was also on the ballot for township council.
By the end of the November election, Nick Jr. totaled 21 write-ins. He won a seat on the board of education by just one vote.
