[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Friedson and Glass will split the vote, or Friedson will win, because MAGA morons crossed over to vote for him. Friedson being supported and pumped up by MAGA is fascinating.

Jawando maybe. [/quote]

It's either Jawando or who is closest to a Republican in Mont Cty, Friedson. Jawando and Glass will split vote. Jawando might get by because people still numbingly vote the Apple Ballot, because they think ever increasing school budgeting is always in their best interest.[/quote]

They’re all splitting voter bases. Friedson and Glass are splitting the YIMBY vote, which was Riemer’s base last time. I think both Friedson and Glass will run stronger than Riemer did and Jawando won’t run as strong as Elrich did. [/quote]

Agree that the YIMBYs are split between Glass and Friedson.  But if you are a single issue voter on development/housing over all else, Friedson gets your vote.

Yes, it strikes me as 'buying' exposure and votes, and little substance. But there's always one. There was the guy that owned that big kids gym and other businesses. Out of nowhere guy with a ton of cash hoping to rush past everyone else. I've also never lived in a solidly blue state before here (not counting DC...) so maybe it's typical? I studied political science and don't recall this scenario.

Which is why I think Glass gets more votes than Friedson in the end (even if Jawando wins).  Glass has broader appeal on other issues, and the name recognition of being at large.  He already won a county wide election. Friedson hasn’t.[/quote]

Do you think Glass edges out Jawando?[/quote]

With all the money that Friedson has spent and that has been spent on Friedson’s behalf, he should be up 10 to 20 points. He’s wasted it on propagating half truths (or lies) about his opponents. Maybe Friedson pulls out a victory but I think it will be Glass or Jawando. [/quote]

I do think the PAC/developer spending is skewing the perception of this race.  You see Friedson stuff everywhere, and there are lots of ads for him and attacking others.  But that reflects $$$, not votes.[/quote][/quote]
