Actually we got what very few voted for. He won by a disgustingly small number of votes and most people voted for Blair or Reimer….who voted at all, anyway…..such a low torn out in the primary.[/quote]

That's misleading since the majority voted for El Rich or he wouldn't have won.  I regret voting for him. The fact that he just wants to increase taxes without addressing runaway MCPS spending shows he's a terrible leader.[/quote]

someone doesn't understand majority vs plurality [/quote]

Elrich was elected in November 2022 with 75% of the vote. That's a majority.

In the primary...which is the actual election, he won with less than 40% of the vote.

MOST people did not want Elrich [/quote]

The primary election is the primary election. The general election is the general election. You have to get the most votes in both elections. Winning the primary is necessary but sufficient. That is why Marc Elrich is county executive, and Reardon Sullivan isn't.[/quote]
