[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What if the county public employee unions put this effort into getting all of their members vaccinated?

And then found a different issue to attack a candidate for county executive for - one that doesn't make their favored candidate look bad?

I unenthusiastically voted for Elrich last time, and I'll likely unenthusiastically vote for Elrich again this time, too, but it's foolish for the public employee unions to put him on the spot like this. The county executive should support the vaccine requirement (and so should the public employee unions). The public employee unions' strategy risks winning the battle but losing the war. [/quote]
Good points but I don’t understand Elrich’s culpability here? Riemer purposely picked a fight with county employees in order to promote himself. What is Elrich’s role in this?

As for me, I’m probably voting Blair just to bring some balance to county government.[/quote]

Whether or not Riemer "purposely picked a fight," it's good public and public-health policy to require county employees to be vaccinated. How could this goal be achieved with the cooperation of county employee unions, which oppose this requirement?

As for Elrich's role - what's his opinion about the requirement for county employees to be vaccinated? Does he support it, does he oppose it, is he being wishy washy for/against?[/quote]
You’ve lost me here. Riemer is full on pulling a stunt for his campaign trying to be a proto-Gavin Newsom type figure while also taking a shot at MCGEO. He clearly thought it was strategically brilliant but it sort of backfired on him for the reason that everything back fires on him. He’s lazy and doesn’t care about details. [/quote]
