Description
One of the most high-profile members of the Texas Board of Education's Religious Right bloc lost his seat in a primary election March 2. Don McLeroy, a dentist from College Station, was defeated by Thomas Ratliff, a moderate Republican. McLeroy, a creationist and staunch ally of the Religious Right, has led the board's anti-separationist faction in several squabbles over "culture war" issues. Most recently, he has been in the forefront of efforts to rewrite the state's social studies and history standards to reflect "Christian nation" views.
