[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]She’s not dropping out, but is running as an independent I think?[/quote]

Same difference in a county that blindly votes blue no matter what.[/quote]

I think you’re underestimating the support she has among Arlingtonians.  Has anyone said which campaign went after her?[/quote]

Hmm. Don’t people have to sign a pledge if they vote in the caucus, saying that they will only vote for the candidate(s) who win the caucus? Am I understanding that correctly (not being sarcastic, genuinely wondering)? If so, and if Symone is the only one running as an Independent, then those who want to vote for her will have to forego voting for the second open position.[/quote]

Yes, you have to sign a pledge to vote in the caucus. However, I'm of the opinion that it's undemocratic and unenforceable so I wouldn't let that hold me back if I wanted to vote in the caucus and then vote for an independent. I ESPECIALLY don't care about following the pledge because the race is supposed to be non-partisan. [/quote]

I have never voted in an Arlington caucus because of the pledge. Whether it’s undemocratic or unenforceable is irrelevant- I’m not pledging to do something I don’t intend to do.[/quote]

Dp- well enjoy being disenfranchised [/quote]

Not my doing. Enjoy being unethical.[/quote]
