[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] Yeah, that's Clarksburg's problem, politically. At full build-out (which there isn't), Clarksburg was only supposed to have 43,000 people. Montgomery County currently has a population of over 1 million. If it's true that downcounty people have more of a voice, then that's because there are a lot more downcounty people than Clarksburg people. I think it's easy to forget this, if you live in Clarksburg.[/quote] I mean, the City of Takoma Park is only 18,000. So this isn't really a numbers game - it is a matter of viable candidates who want the job, and [b]making a case that your priorities align with the priorities of voters who may not live in your enclave.[/b] [/quote] True, and politically-active Clarksburg residents so far have not done a good job with this. The outcome of the at-large Board of Education primary will be interesting.[/quote]
