HS Student's Social-Media-Fueled Campaign Propels Him Into Local
Office  Josh Lafazan, an 18-year-old high school senior from
Syosset, New York, shattered all kinds of records when he was
elected to his school district's board last week. He became the
youngest-ever elected official in New York state, and voter
turnout was well above normal. How did Lafazan make such an
achievement possible? In part, thanks to smart use of the web
and social media.
