[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Wes Moore, who is very YIMBY and has been endorsing YIMBYs in races against NIMBYs all over the state and in many county races, endorsed Jawando. Maybe this will put to bed the ridiculous claim that Jawando is anti-housing because he opposed some odious bills.

Wes Moore’s political endorsements in Montgomery County seem to defy intraparty ideology. He endorsed Jawando for county executive but endorsed Morrison for District 1 of County Council (the most Friedson-coded candidate in that race). Any policy-related rationale for the Mooredorsements is pure poppycock — there seems to be something else going on.[/quote]

Or maybe he isn’t myopically focused on just one policy. In the case of county executive, maybe he believes the other two candidates aren’t very good. That could also be part of it. Or maybe the super pac spending against Jawando offended his sensibilities. Probably a combination of all of the above.  [/quote]

Or maybe Jawando was one of the first to endorse Moore when he ran for governor the first time and Morrison works for the state government. This isn’t about being “myopically focused on just one policy” — the endorsements are clearly not policy-based (if they were, they’d be much more coherent).[/quote]
