| Curious who others are pulling for and why? |

It'll be another democrat, so taxes will continue to climb, and women like the woman murdered by an illegal alien in Wheaton last week will continue to face abuse and murder by men who shouldn't be here, but are, because Montgomery won't let police officers check residency status of criminals.
So nothing will change. |
| I'm struggling with this. What do Rockville residents think of Rose Krasnow? |
Yes, please! Please, please, please elect her, and not any current council members. |
Why are you a fan? Honest question, I don't really know much about her. |
Natural result of one-party rule. |

Seventh State is a great website covering local and state politics in Maryland.

| I like George Leventhal. Having observed all the candidates in action over the last several years, I am most impressed by how prepared and knowledgeable he is. Elrich and Berliner merely toss around rhetoric and seem generally uninformed. |
|
I like Bill Frick. He was the only one who actually decided to try to dismantle the DLC (county alcohol monopoly) to the point of proposing a bill in the state legislature (which MoCo shot down before it got to vote).
His stance on minimum wage is it should be settled at the state level and I agree -- raising it to $15/hour while Frederick, Howard, and PG don't have it as high will cause jobs to move. Leventhal and to a less extent Berliner are in the pockets of the unions. |
| Don't know a ton about the candidates but based on what I've been reading so far I think I'm liking Krasnow or Frick. |
|
Frick will win easily. people are fed up with those who were on the council for so long and now they want the CE job but will be same old same old.
Or if Mike Knapp runs... |

Agreed - I wish Popkin would push for this: [url]http://wjla.com/news/local/maryland-sheriff-touts-cooperation-with-immigration-agency-11-28-2017 |
Sadly I am afraid you maybe right. I think we may have crossed the point of no return. |
