This has to be some kind of sock puppet who keeps writing this stuff. Compared to so many people who have been on. The SB in the last 15 years or more, Frisch has stood out as being unremarkable. He’s well spoken, pretty responsive in my experience, and has been in the mainstream on the vast majority of SB decisions. He doesn’t waste board time and he doesn’t grandstand. So why the hate? Because he’s gay? Because he has a teacher in his family?

As for supporting virtual learning during the months before a COVID vaccine was widely available, he was certainly in the mainstream for that. Only Megan differentiated herself by being grandstanding and argumentative with the Superintendent so she could walk the tightrope of looking like she supported those who wanted all buildings open while in reality staying in the mainstream and supporting temporarily virtual learning.

It just strikes me as really fishy that there is this concerted scrum of negativity about Frisch when he doesn’t stand out in actual school board meetings. He doesn’t bloviate or ask stupid questions. He doesn’t waste time. He’s not a grandstander. I don’t know what his over all track record is in terms of responsiveness but he has responded to me the few times I wrote to more than one SB rep.

Personally, the biggest red flag that screams to me about this other candidate Holly is that she brags about having Chap Peterson’s endorsement. Chap! is no progressive Democrat, so I question her bona tides as a progressive if she is touting his support.


Karl, we know it's you.


Nope. Unless Karl has been on a concerted effort to sock puppet here since 2012, pretending to be a pregnant woman and then a young mom and someone with marriage problems and someone with stepdaughter challenges and someone with travel questions and lots of thoughts on parenting and nursing and children’s books and adoption, I’m pretty sure Jeff could tell you that my IP address is quite unlikely to be that of a gay male politician with no children. I mean, some people put a lot of time into sock puppetry, but that would be next level. Hundreds and hundreds of hours over a decade just to write something like warmly positive about himself? Unlikely.

[sorry, put my reply in the wrong place in the book quote above!]

The simple fact is that Blake Ln should have never been considered for an ES
. Big kudos to Fritsch for stopping that unnecessary and wasteful plan.


The property was purchased to be a school, and we desperately need a school in that area. Neighboring schools are over capacity. Honestly the dog park thing was the nicest gloss you could put on the straight up NIMBYism driving the opposition.


Show me the CIP data that shows that a school is desperately needed there.



I don’t know what is in the CIP, but there are more than 650 new homes opening in the Providence neighborhood in the next year. If 1% of those homes have school aged kids, Providence will be back over capacity.


The point is that the school board agreed to make boundary changes for Shrevewood and build a new school at Blake Lane. They agreed to it!!! And then Karl came along and convinced them to change their plans. This is 100% all on him.

It started with Frisch but it’s also on the other dolts on the School Board who went along with his nonsense.

It’s not the only instance where they went along with an incredibly stupid idea proposed by a colleague. Why? Because they are all from the same party and challenging each other’s bad idea is treated like treason. They are awful, despicable people who place party loyalty above their responsibility to students and communities.

A “pledge”. My spouse will be one who votes for Holly on the 8th and again in January because they know a GOP candidate doesn’t have a hope of winning the general. They’ll happy “pledge” to defeat Karl.

Not sure why you think I (the PP) have a responsibility to enforce this. It's simply a quote from the Fairfax Cnty Dems webpage.

And a largely meaningless one at that, it seems.

Rarely has one elected official accomplished so little yet suggested he's entitled to so much. Karl Frisch is what you get when incompetence and narcissism exist in one individual in equal measure.

I tried to put the primary election info on Next door. Karl's supporters quickly came and said I have a grudge against FCPS and that is the reason I am doing this. I asked why is Karl afraid if more people vote in the primary. Karl is definitely afraid of people in Vienna and wants to suppress the vote as much as possible.

If anybody wants a little fun, put something about Karl on Nextdoor and see how quickly his supporters try to get your post removed.
