[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why are seemingly all the county at-large candidates from either downtown Silver Spring or TP? They all live within 3 miles of each other. Montgomery is a big county. Shouldn’t some of the at-large candidates be from places elsewhere? [/quote] If you're looking to vote for people outside that area, Laurie-Ann Sayles is from Gaithersburg and Kellerman is from Poolesville, although I can't find much about her beyond that. Brandy Brooks is from Wheaton so kind of technically Silver Spring but not downtown.[/quote] If people want to vote for “justice” vote for the person from Poolesville. They have suffered severe divestment from the county and recently compiled a report documenting the lack of equality in the public investment they have received. They are so desperate that they have begged the county to build just one building that would include their new high school, public library, police and fire department. Can you imagine. [/quote] Beg to differ. No plans to build a fire department or police station. The fire department is fine right where it is (in Beallsville) and the police would get basically a break room and bathroom.[/quote] Is this supposed to be some type of gotcha? The police station being smaller than normal police stations is actually more evidence of how desperate they are. Where is Friedson? Isn’t he supposed to represent these people or is he too busy trying to impress the TPSS crowd? This is what happens when inexperienced kids get elected.[/quote] The building will also include a co-located community center and a health center. It’s pretty sad that the county has neglected this community so badly to the extent that they have documented that they live in a “services desert”. [/quote]
