[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]At this point, if a moderate republican ran for office in MoCo, and focused almost exclusively on getting tough on crime (more police, better pay for police, harsher sentences for criminals), I would definitely vote for him/her, and I know many others who would do the same. Truthfully, David Blair dropped the ball by not doing more with this issue.[/quote] Reardon Sullivan did this. But he lost 75%-25%. MoCo just has different priroties, which are (A) Vote blue no matter who, (B) Be Woker than your neighbors, and (C) Stick it to the evil right wing[/quote] For as long as I've lived in Montgomery County, which is over 20 years, the Montgomery County Republican Party has failed to understand that Montgomery County voters simply do not want to buy what the Montgomery County Republican Party is selling. Several times over the years, I have been disgusted with this or that Democratic candidate, and considered voting for the Republican candidate as a protest vote. Every single time, I have reconsidered as soon as I looked at their campaign literature. If there were still candidates like Jean Cryor or Connie Morella, it would be different, but the Republicans would never run anybody like them these days, plus nobody like them would run as a Republican these days. Anti-vaccine, anti-immigrant, anti-voting by mail, anti-LGBTQ, anti-acknowledging that their guy lost the 2020 election, no way.[/quote]
