[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't see it that way at all.  If McElveen and McDaniel have more support far north than others, my sense is that's largely because they are the MOST left on the political spectrum, and that's what the wealthy Oakton/Vienna/McLean crowd likes.  Moon seems much more moderate, but widely popular with everyone.  I've meet Munir and he's moderate, too -- as a parent (maybe the only current parent of FCPS students running?) his concerns seemed quite practical and I think that's where is focus is, rather than national talking points.  As a parent, that resonated with me. At this point, for me, it's Moon and Munir, but I can't quite figure out the 3rd.  McElveen seems disingenuous and McDaniel has sent me about 400 emails but the only thing they are about is LGBTQ issues, so I can't really figure out what his actual education-related stances are.

I’m get McDaniel’s emails too and I think maybe 1 was about LGBTQ issues, which, like it or not, is a topic of concern for the community. His website has a long list of education issues. [/quote]

PP here -- you do realize that it's possible we're on different mailing lists, or the social media algorithms show us different posts, right? I'm not an LGBTQ activist but perhaps I got on some list. Regardless, I'm not against LGBTQ activism, so I'm not quite sure what you were trying to imply, I'm well aware it's a topic of concern for some/many in the community.  My point was that it is FAR from the ONLY issue of concern for the community, but it's a quick and easy talking point to show how liberal you are, and that's what concerned me. I'm glad to hear he has a well-rounded platform. [/quote]
