[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am voting against Hogan because I feel he hasn't done much for the more urban areas of the state.  He talks a good game but the roads in Maryland are terrible.  He hasn't brought in any new businesses...in fact we are losing many like Discovery.   Despite what people think about Baltimore, it is our largest city and it makes the state look bad when you have that type of crime and poverty while you have really wealthy suburban areas.  He should have built the red line there and taken advantage of the federal money.

He is popular because the bar is set so low for Republicans and he isn't acting like Trump or other crazy right wing nut, which is a bad reason to vote for someone.  Alec Ross has my vote as I think he gets it and is an outsider that will bring in new ideas for Maryland.  [/quote]

Actually, business growth is up in every MD county except Montgomery County. [/quote]

That is true though relative to NoVa and DC, Maryland’s growth is glacial. And the loss of Discovery and the failure of MoCo to bring in more business is troubling. [/quote]

But let's be honest, our county taxes are ridiculous and it is pretty anti-business in general.  It still blows my mind that Total Wine, HQ in Bethesda, can't have a store here because of our arcane laws.  [/quote]

Think it through, little buddy.

If MoCo changes its arcane law regarding alcohol sales, then it will lose significant revenue...and thus, your county taxes will go up. Get it?

So what do you want: cute booze shops in Bethesda and increased county taxes? Or, maintain the status quo? [/quote]

Little Buddy wants the county to curb their spending so I can have my cute wine shop and reasonable taxes.  The amount of money the county wastes is crazy.  Amazingly, having grown up in New England I know it is possible to have both.[/quote]
