Here's a comparison of Elrich vs Floreen, specifically about how they differ:
https://bethesdamagazine.com/bethesda-beat/politics/opinion-how-nancy-floreen-and-marc-elrich-are-different/

Elrich is way too left for my taste. I'm voting Hogan and either Floreen or maybe even Ficker. Floreen and Elrich are both term-limited (thanks to Ficker) county council members. If they have all these great ideas for change, why didn't them implement them during their 12 years on the county council?

You live in CCMD, you vote Dem across the board.

There's nothing appealing about Floreen. Her developer constituency is hellbent on trying to buy the office.

Hogan is going to win.

But keep in mind, he will be replacing 5 of 7 State supreme court justices.

In the D primary for governor, I voted for Baker but would’ve been fine with Madaleno too. But Jealous is too extreme (like Elrich) so I’m voting Hogan. He’s no fan of Trump and has been a solid governor so far and provides a check in the legislature which is overwhelmingly democratic. I will say though that I think the local primaries in MD are illustrative of the issues facing a fractured Democratic Party that gets overtaken by the most extreme left-wing faction. That may be enough to win the primaries but it almost guarantees a loss in the general.


+1 also Takoma Park. Well said.


+2

Fiscally conservative?

Hogan is the ONLY option you have.

Agree. Decide what is most important to you and vote based on that.
