[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm a bit surprised. I am not an Elrich fan, but I thought he was a progressive who wanted more affordable housing in MoCo.

[quote]Montgomery County should not plan build more housing that would be affordable for working-class and middle-income families because he does not believe data showing that the county will need them, County Executive Marc Elrich said at a joint press conference on Tuesday, November 12....Elrich argued against proposed affordable housing targets.[/quote]
I'm not sure now what he wants.[/quote]

1. Elrich is not a progressive. He is a person who wants to do what "the people" want, and if "the people" don't want more housing or bike lanes or whatever - which they often don't, because "the people" incline to be NIMBYs -  then he doesn't either.
2. GGW and Elrich have a long history of mutual dislike.
3. It isn't clear what Elrich wants.[/quote]
