A school board chairperson in Northern Kentucky has resigned from his position after Facebook comments from years ago – which called for people to “please shoot Republicans” – and a 2017 incident where he was driving under the influence came to light.
Jeffrey Miller, who has served on the Erlanger-Elsmere Independent School District board since 2016, submitted his resignation after state Rep. Steve Doan, an Erlanger Republican, brought the social media comment and charge to light.
“I found that (comment) directly as an attack on me and an attack on the people in my district,” said Doan, who won reelection with about 63% of the vote last year.
Board of education members unanimously voted to accept Miller’s resignation at a regularly scheduled meeting July 10.
They declined to comment on the incident, except to say that Miller publicly apologized for the social media comments years ago.
