Fresno rocks!
Transgender student runs for prom king


FRESNO, Calif. - When school officials announce the name of the Fresno High School prom king on Saturday, Cinthia Covarrubias will be wearing a tuxedo just like the six boys vying for the honor. Administrators agreed to reverse a district protocol this week that limited males to compete for the title after Covarrubias was nominated by her classmates.

4. Well, they orginally told her she could only run for Queen. Then their attorneys
told them that may be a violation of CA state law. So maybe CA rocks.
