Talk:Lynden, Washington

message: I think that we should add Pella, Iowa, as a sister city. The city is very similar to Lynden. Both show quite a bit of Dutch influence, and there are quite a few family connections between Pella and Lynden. Thoughts? --Loomos 20:45, 2 December 2006 (UTC)

message: I was thinking about adding a section about Lynden's schools. The Lynden school district would cover Fisher, Isom, Lynden High, and Lynden Middle. Private schools include Lynden Christian, Ebenezer Christian, and other small private schools. Thoughts? --Loomos 21:10, 2 December 2006 (UTC)

thread_title: Schools?

message: To include this section on the page, I think it needs to cite some sources that verify that Lynden is politically conservative. Results from past elects would be a great source. I marked the page to indicate that sources are needed.
Also, I think the language in the section may be a little strong. For example, "highly conservative" could be replaced with simply "conservative."

replies: text: Highly conservative is appropriate due to the voting records of the town. Look at them. --CmdrClow 23:09, 12 January 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: The voting records simply show that the majority of the people in Lynden vote Republican. They don't provide a basis to determine the degree of conservativism that exists in the community. Also, what does it mean that the households and families in Lynden are "highly devoted" to the lifestyle of the Republican party? It seems as though all this Political Majority section says is that historically, the majority of those in Lynden vote Republican. Could a statement to that affect simply be placed in the demographic section? It doens't seem like it should have its own section. Justinbajema 15:17, 23 January 2007 (UTC)

message: I've heard this statistic before but never seen any evidence. Can we site this or delete it? I'm suspicious that this is an urban legand. --O1mni 01:44, 27 February 2007 (UTC)
