According to Rafael Olmeda of The Sun-Sentinel, NAACP local chapter president Marsha Ellison said:

“There is no reason to believe that she will make the right decisions, the just decisions for people she considers ‘less than.”

School Board Member Ben Williams told Olmeda:

“‘Mrs. Murray is a professional board member,’ said Williams, who is black. ‘She has conducted herself the way a board member should conduct herself.'”
