[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think Parisa’s biggest enemy in this race are the supporters who have taken to the internet. I read a post on this thread coming after North Arlington specifically, and it really got under my skin. Enough to lodge a protest vote in favor of Katcher this morning. Both candidates have similar platforms, so with all else being equal, I’ll take the one whose camp isn’t out there disparaging my neighbors.[/quote]

+1 Me, too. They really are the worst. I probably wouldn’t have voted, because it’s democrat v. Democrat but since it’s gotten so ugly (unnecessarily) - I will. [/quote]

IMO, [b]Josh is the one who has made it ugly. [/b]But you do you.[/quote]

Get something straight. Parisa is the one who made it ugly four years ago by having the nerve to challenge Theo. Parisa should have understood people like her, with her background and experience,  don’t belong anywhere near the CA’s position (or judgeships for that matter). They don’t have the values and toughness you need to serve.

Case in point: [b]you don’t handcuff your own line prosecutors by telling them they can’t strike Black people just because they’re Black even when the defendant is Black, or Latinos when the defendant is Latino.[/b] Nor do you roll out the red carpet for the shady defense attorneys to go through your records when you’re only obligated to let them in a secure room during business hours. Both are just dumb and anti-prosecution. Do the Commanders show the Cowboys their playbook before they play. The Commanders act like they do, but they shouldn’t. Neither should Parisa force her prosecutors to do so. Besides harming the people, it sets the prosecutors back when they apply for jobs as AUSAs or other higher jobs, and their W-L record pales compared to prosecutors who treat defenders as, heavens to Betsy, the ENEMY of the people.

Josh is just doing whatever it takes to win. Just like he’ll do as CA. Just as we want our prosecutors to do. It’s morning in Arlington County again as Parisa’s reign will end in three days.[/quote]

So you want a County Attorney who engages in unethical, unconstitutional conduct? Cool.[/quote]
