[quote=Anonymous]Kristin Mink and Will Jawando routinely get outvoted by the 9 other councilmembers that are all more moderate than they are. Elrich is not in office because he is progressive. He is in office because he combines support of the unions with support from NIMBYs. The problem with Montgomery County is not ideology. It's that unions and NIMBYs have too much power and they stifle any effort to grow the county's economy. Forget about making things business-friendly, we can't do that. Forget about changes to neighborhoods designed in the 1940s, we can't do that. [/quote]
