[quote=Anonymous]One of his biggest hurdles will be to overcome his defund the police stance, or appearance of defunding. The police. This is from the Washington Post article. There’s some nuance in what he said, but this is what he’s up against. With Montgomery county crime going up, this will not help him state wide. Democrats need to get behind a solid candidate.

“We need to invest in our communities, and we need to disinvest from the things that give us these horrible outcomes in policing,” Jawando continued. “That’s what ‘defund the police’ means to me.”
He paused, allowing the applause to rise, then quiet.
“And I support it. I do.”
Celesete Donawa, 31, swept her braids to her back and cheered. This was the first time she had heard any official utter the words “defund the police,” she said. She had not known of Jawando until that point. Now, she wanted to hear more from him.“
