[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Hogan has continued to tout himself as the Education Governor while [b]siphoning off money from MCPS schools[/b].

The beltway widening/I270 widening ideas are election-year gimmicks that won't happen.  If you think they will, please come find me, because I have some beachfront property to sell you in FL!

If that isn't enough for you, 2020 is when Maryland does redistricting.

And if that isn't enough for you, please move out of this blue county and into some crazy red county - we really don't want you here.[/quote]

You think Jealous will be better?  Two words - Kirwan Commission.

Also, Maryland is one of the poster children for gerrymandered districts.  If we are going to complain about districts in red states, and insist on fairly drawn districts, we need to accept the (far fewer) instances that hurt Democrats.  [/quote]

You post about Jealous and the Kirwan Commission on every thread as if it's Mein Kampf.  It affirms the importance of early childhood education, reiterates the need for highly qualified teachers and school leaders, explains the importance of coherent paths for both college bound and vocational track kids, talks about the importance of supporting at-risk students with resources, and supporting better governance and more accountability throughout the school system.  I'm iin favor of all of that, and I'm for Jealous.

Dp, given that we already live in a high tax state, I don’t want to see further tax increases.  I think our education dollars should go to improving existing K-12 (huge need to replace aging schools state wide). I do not believe we can currently afford to make all higher education free, or universal pre-k.  Therefore, will not be voting for Jealous though I otherwise intend to vote for democrats.[/quote]
