Here is a link to the Poolesville forum last week. |
No Mandel is not a online role model If anything she is an idiot |
Mui looks good to me... |
For me, this just reaffirmed the Apple ballot was dead on. Still voting for Montoya, Zimmerman, and Stewart. |
Clearly Small Potatoes is in here spreading their family's unhinged hate against laura stewart. It's poor showing for someone desperately striving to be important in the upcounty through their chamber of commerce job to be involved in belittling a longtime community volunteer, but I guess she goes long with her hubby. Though of course both of them are responsible for the account. |
Please explain. |
Appreciate you for the links. I’m also realizing this is the first time I seen Natalie Zimmerman. |
I'm struggling to understand how Natalie Zimmerman got the MCEA endorsement. The substance out there about her is so scant. She's pretty much a nothingburger but she seems to have gotten the backing of the whole union cause she's a member? I don't get it. |
If you think elementary school teachers are nothingburgers, then I'm not sure what your idea of "substance" is. |
I am looking for those who stand up to the MCPS
BS. So, I will be voting for Rebecca Smondrowski, who questions their antics all the time; Lynne Harris, a surprise vote, because I was not a fan when she was working with MCCPTA, but she truly has asked the hard questions; Laura Stewart. Laura has history, knows the ins and outs of the budget having chaired the CIP for MCCPTA for many years, and I think she'll be great working with Lynne and others. I believe this will bring the change and transparency needed with going crazy (Mandel) or others who have a learning curve that is just too steep |
The Apple Ballot is usually dead on and generally gets their candidates elected, which is why our current BOE - most of whom were endorsed by the Apple Ballot - is doing such a stellar job. I agree we need to keep their streak going and vote in the new Apple Ballot slate. |
The Apple ballot is fantastic this time though. Even better than other years. Definitely voting in the mainstream candidates not the RWNJs or incumbents. |
She's been on the BoE since 2012. What has she accomplished with her questioning? How will she bring change? |
+1 the Apple Ballot this year is doubling down on what has made the BOE so successful to date. Voting Apple Ballot is the only way to keep up the great work that the BOE - and its current Apple Ballot endorsees on the board now - has been doing. |
DP. What are you talking about? There are 3 incumbents on the ballot this year. The Apple Ballot endorsed 0 of the incumbents. There are no incumbents on the Apple Ballot this year. Every candidate on the Apple Ballot is a non-incumbent. The Apple Ballot this year is the realistic, we-need-change-but-not-from-cranks choice. I had decided, independently on my own, to vote for Montoya, Zimmerman, and Stewart, so it was interesting when I found out that those were the Apple Ballot choices. |
