I worry an independent candidate will result in a republican win.

No. Not with MoCo demographics and Ficker as the republican nominee.

If Blair wins the nomination, I predict Floreen will drop out. Blair will then win the general and Floreen will get a job in his administration. If Elrich wins the nomination, Floreen will stay in. No idea what happens then, but I think Floreen would have a good shot. She'll likely pick up a lot of Republican votes, and a good number of the Krasnow/Blair/Frick/Berliner contingent.

It will be interesting to watch.

This is what I’m thinking too. If Elrich wins, she’ll consolidate the anti-Elrich vote and win. If Blair wins, I don’t think she’ll stay in it.

Floreen is the absolute worst-- she's a primary example of why term limits were adopted. Lives in Garrett Park and votes for overdevelopment everywhere else in the county and won't even show up to community meetings to discuss it. Enough with people overreacting about Erhlich.

Unclear whether she’ll be deemed eligible since she’s still currently registered as a democrat (can’t change party affiliation 21 days before a primary) but am hoping she gets to run. Not that I know much about her but in case Elrich wins the primary, I am firmly in the anyone but him camp. Seriously laughed when I saw this.... good for her.


That's only because you don't know much about her.

I strongly disfavor Elrich as county executive, but I even more strongly disfavor Nancy Floreen and Robin Ficker.


Nope. If elrich is the D nominee and Floreen runs as an independent, she will crush him if for no other reason than that people effing hate elrich and will be glad of a choice that isn’t Ficker. I don’t give a shot that she is pro-development. Better than having Hugo Chavez running things.


+1. While I dislike Floreen, I think she would be far better than Elrich is ensuring the MoCo remains economically viable.

Floreen? She’s not running for anything.

I think you are right. But she’s one mean person. Oh well, I won’t have to work with her.

I really really hope Blair wins, wish I had voted for him instead of Frick

C’mon. Seriously? Have you spoken to him? He’s not like the caricatures in the media.

Give me a break. She’s at the root of many of the problems. I can’t believe she had the gall to file. Pathetic.

Huh! I was wondering if someone would run as an independent although she wouldn’t have been my first choice. Blair should have just run as an independent to begin with rather than run for the Dem nomination.

I posted for weeks that a Frick vote was a waste/ a vote for Elrich.

So dumb.

If Elrich makes it to the general election, I'm voting Ficker. If Blair makes it, I"m voting Blair.

I'm not party affiliated so couldn't choose any of them in the primary.
