[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If you are pro-housing, pro-Thrive, pro-YIMBY and you live in Montgomery County, what do you do on the ballot for the County Executive candidates?

I was a Not Marc Elrich voter. I voted Blair even though I preferred Riemer as my first choice. I don't like Elrich because he doesn't want to do anything about single family zoning and he opposes Thrive, and even if he himself isn't racist, he aligns with racists and conservatives who don't want to see changes in their neighborhoods.

But Reardon Sullivan is also anti-Thrive, doesn't care about the affordable housing crisis and is worse on housing than Elrich, and it would be embarrassing to have a Republican elected in MoCo.

I don't want to vote for Elrich because I don't want to endorse him or say anything favorable because he is so bad on housing. I am inclined to leave it blank, but if the Republican has any chance of coming close to winning, then I will hold my nose and vote for Elrich.[/quote]

Being against Thrive, being against upzoning, being in favor of retaining SFH neighborhoods does NOT make one a racist.  Sorry to disappoint you.[/quote]
