Blount County pastors John Lowe and Chris Pass running for school board. Their financial backing comes from the Awake 21 movement, an evangelical organization which is working to elect right-wing Christians to local offices. Both are using their churches, Tuckaleechee Baptist Church and Grandview Baptist Church in Maryville, as the address for their campaigns, and have posted almost identical campaign videos on their churches’ Facebook pages. These violations of the rules for tax-exempt religious organizations have been reported by FFRF-ETC to FFRF-national, which is preparing a complaint.
