This Laura Stewart/Bethany Mandel race between ultra partisans on the left and right is going to be exhausting. It’s troubling that the BOE race is going to be so partisan. For all of her faults, at least Shebra Evans seems to stick to the issues that are relevant to the BOE and more middle of the road on issues that aren’t.

What issues does Shebra stick to? What does Shebra believe in? I've been waiting years to find out.

You can watch the years of BOE meetings that Shebra has been a part of to find out. Unlike the other 2 ideologues in the race, she doesn’t take to twitter to comment on everything going on in the country, so you won’t be able to find out that way.

Although I guess you could say the same about Laura Stewart, who made her formerly public twitter page private once she decided to run for office. I wonder what historical posts she was so worried about that made her take down the whole page and keep it out of view.

Shebra could be an ideologue if she had ideas to share. I've looked at Shebra's Twitter account. Pretty sparse, accept for wishing her daughter well in college (which is truly very sweet) and thanking schools for having her in for a visit.

I don’t think she wants to be an ideologue. It’s not her personal style and it isn’t politically popular when you’re on the BOE, which is probably why Laura Stewart switched her twitter account to private and blocked anyone from seeing her ideas there once she decided to run for office as the accountability and transparency candidate.

Evans has to have an idea before she can be an ideologue but I will still take her benign neglect over Laura Stewart or Bethany Mandel (literally two sides of the same coin) any day.

You can try to gaslight Laura Stewart by saying she is similar to Bethany Mandel, but that just catch traction with anyone.

Far left vs. far right. Both live in echo chambers. Correct me where I’m wrong.

You live in a polarized world. So sorry about that.

I would be willing to consider supporting Shebra Evans. The problem is that Shebra just hasn't done anything on the BOE for the last 8 years. Shebra rubber-stamped Smith and McKnight positions.

The BOE deliberated those hires in closed sessions. How do you know what happened there? One person who probably got a play-by-play was Laura Stewart. Did she share the readout with you?

The anti-Stewart trolling is really over the top tonight

Dismissing everyone who disagrees with you or everyone who says something you don’t like is how we got today’s MCPS.

I looked up the candidates on credible sources like moco360. Mandrel is cray-cray. Evans and Stewart seem basically the same in terms of their positions. Evans is an incumbent who hasn't done much and I'm not happy with the direction things are going so will support Stewart.

I'd support any candidate that was pro-tracking and against honors for all, basically, for providing all kids with options, not just the bottom 20%.

Stewart is too partisan for me. If this were a county council or state house race I would agree but we don’t need partisanship on the school board.

She seems great to me, but I'm just moderately independent.

What positions/actions has Evans taken that indicate she is less partisan than Stewart?

It’s more about what Evans hasn’t done. Sometimes doing nothing and not wading in is better for the organization than wading in. Stewart is many many more times a partisan than Evans. Stewart, for example, has multiple partisan leadership positions while Evans has none.

Oh? Which "partisan leadership positions" has she had?

She was the erstwhile dem chair for her state legislative district, or something like that. Small potatoes. Much more time in various PTA leadership roles, which are not partisan in and of themselves (though one might guess the lean, there, especially in MD/MoCo). She may have a lot of connections to the machine, of course, but that would be the same for Evans.

As for Evans do-nothing as a response, I'd suggest that having some measure of power (BOE/oversight), indicating her tilt with pretty much every one of the very few issues she does pursue (e.g., redistricting factors, etc.), and doing nothing to challenge any of the other MCPS initiatives that have tilted that way, including personnel decisions (promotions/central office placements), paints her just as left as anything we've seen come from Stewart.

Stewart, at least, challenges MCPS from a data-centric perspective, and routinely asks for greater openness in the few minutes available for public testimony. Her preparation, there, suggests she puts more effort into that scant opportunity to press for that which she views as being in the public interest than Evans does for her elected role, with relatively unfettered time at the table when she bothers to employ it.

Although I guess you could say the same about Laura Stewart, who made her formerly public twitter page private once she decided to run for office. I wonder what historical posts she was so worried about that made her take down the whole page and keep it out of view.

Shebra could be an ideologue if she had ideas to share. I've looked at Shebra's Twitter account. Pretty sparse, accept for wishing her daughter well in college (which is truly very sweet) and thanking schools for having her in for a visit.

I don’t think she wants to be an ideologue. It’s not her personal style and it isn’t politically popular when you’re on the BOE, which is probably why Laura Stewart switched her twitter account to private and blocked anyone from seeing her ideas there once she decided to run for office as the accountability and transparency candidate.

Evans has to have an idea before she can be an ideologue but I will still take her benign neglect over Laura Stewart or Bethany Mandel (literally two sides of the same coin) any day.

You can try to gaslight Laura Stewart by saying she is similar to Bethany Mandel, but that just catch traction with anyone.

Far left vs. far right. Both live in echo chambers. Correct me where I’m wrong.

You live in a polarized world. So sorry about that.

I would be willing to consider supporting Shebra Evans. The problem is that Shebra just hasn't done anything on the BOE for the last 8 years. Shebra rubber-stamped Smith and McKnight positions.

The BOE deliberated those hires in closed sessions. How do you know what happened there? One person who probably got a play-by-play was Laura Stewart. Did she share the readout with you?

The anti-Stewart trolling is really over the top tonight

Dismissing everyone who disagrees with you or everyone who says something you don’t like is how we got today’s MCPS.

It's merely factual to characterize the anti-Stewart troll posts as anti-Stewart troll posts.

I looked up the candidates on credible sources like moco360. Mandrel is cray-cray. Evans and Stewart seem basically the same in terms of their positions. Evans is an incumbent who hasn't done much and I'm not happy with the direction things are going so will support Stewart.

Stewart is too partisan for me. If this were a county council or state house race I would agree but we don’t need partisanship on the school board.

What positions/actions has Evans taken that indicate she is less partisan than Stewart?

It’s more about what Evans hasn’t done. Sometimes doing nothing and not wading in is better for the organization than wading in. Stewart is many many more times a partisan than Evans. Stewart, for example, has multiple partisan leadership positions while Evans has none.

Oh? Which "partisan leadership positions" has she had?

This op-ed from her - calling out the WaPo for resorting to “racist tropes” when they endorsed Will Jawando “with reservations” due to his support for removing SROs from schools - says she’s President of the Montgomery County Women’s Democratic Club.

This piece she wrote lists her as a Precinct Chair for the Democratic party - its an interesting read where she highlights that District 1 (in Bethesda, where the Whitman cluster is) receives much more money for school construction and improvement than the rest of the county and to remedy this, we need to change the allocation of these funds by looking at every CIP “through an equity lens” and using the WXY report that the BOE commissioned when it did the district wide boundary analysis to make sure that funds are allocated in an “efficient AND equitable” manner.

This Laura Stewart/Bethany Mandel race between ultra partisans on the left and right is going to be exhausting. It’s troubling that the BOE race is going to be so partisan. For all of her faults, at least Shebra Evans seems to stick to the issues that are relevant to the BOE and more middle of the road on issues that aren’t.

So we shouldn't elect anybody to the Montgomery County board of education who's been involved in Montgomery County politics?

None really but I'm trying to sew fear to further my own far-right agenda.

That all sounds fine to me.
