[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Your best best is to support Ficker for County Exec. Sure, it has nothing to do with Congress and Raskin's seat, but it may shake up the local politicians enough that it has an effect, later on, for the other races.

Ficker has a decent chance now that Floreen threw her hat in the ring as an independent. The Republican got 34% of the vote the last time around (2014) and this time the dems will be split between Elrich and Floreen.[/quote]

I'm trying to make sense of the idea that the OP's best bet for getting rid of Jamie Raskin in Congress is to vote for somebody for county executive who punched a pregnant woman.[/quote]

I think the point is to get rid of far-left Socialists.

There is a much better chance at getting rid of fat communist Elrich who is a lot less beloved than Jamie Raskin. Get rid of Comrade Elrich, it sends a message, since it will be the first time the County Executive is not a Democrat. This could destabilize the Montgomery County Democratic establishment and maybe cause people to #WalkAway. It will show that even though Montgomery County is "blue" mainly since the Republicans are viewed as tea party or Trump extremists, it will show that they aren't socialist. After Elrich maybe they will re-evaluate other far-left Democrats and vote them out too.[/quote]
