[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The best thing you can say about Omar is:

- He's nice and congenial
- He's heavily focused on the Hispanic community and works closely with Diego Uriburu of the Black and Brown Coalition
- He has two daughters in the system

What concerns me about him:
- I think he has too many friends on the board and County Council and  therefore, he won't be aggressive about holding the system accountable
- The MCEA endorsement means he's already got his hands tied when it comes to being a change agent, because the teachers' union isn't gonna like him if he rocks the boat too much
- His campaign has been very lowkey and under the radar. If he gets it, it'll likely be because he got the Apple ballot endorsement and not because he won the hearts and minds of the majority in Montgomery County[/quote]

I’ve talked to him for other things not related and I wouldn’t underestimate him.  [/quote]

What about him impressed you?

He hasn’t said anything that’s gotten traction or pickup in the candidate forums or local news interviews.[/quote]
