MoCo need to focus on importing and attracting wealthy businesses including Amazon and wealthy families, then we can focus on free universal pre-k and free college.

I am voting for Hogan, he is centrist. As much as I like the idea of free universal pre-k and free community college, who the hell will pay for it? Certainly not the wealthy, many tax laws favor the wealthy. It’s why President Trump was able to get away with paying virtually little to no tax. My dear brethren it will be the middle class who will pay the tax increases as it has always been. We the little people don’t have enough knowledge or resources to use little unknown tax loopholes.

I agree. Chevy Chase family. I actually said to my partner this morning that it might be time to move to NW DC and go private schools if Jealous wins.
Can not take more tax increases to pay for more free stuff. The last property tax increase took our home from what we could afford to stretching it once it was reassessed. And the schools have only gotten worse to the point we are already considering going into debt to pay for private.
Talked to two other families in the same boat. There will be a rush to.get out
A progressive Dem will tank this state by chasing out the Golden Geese. Only so much people will stand for before they vote with their feet.
+1 Close in Bethesda and CC families would get crushed if both Erlich and Jealous win. It will be similar to the first few years of the Castro regime.

Is this a serious question? Hogan, of course. He's doing a fantastic job and -- hopefully and most likely -- will easily be reelected.

The big things Jealous is proposing- state single payer health care, free college, universal pre-k are a massive expansion of govt that will no way be funded by a "1% tax on the 1%". Not even close.
Bingo. Voted for Madrelano, will hold my nose and vote Hogan. MoCo pisses money away.
+1 I voted for Madelano too, and I'm so disappointed, but I really didn't want to vote for Hogan, either. Now it looks like I will have to.
+2
Anything to justify not supporting an African American governor, right?
No sense of duty or moral obligation to help elect a POC to an office never held before in this state, huh? Why help make history and correct the wrongs of the past, right?
Sad. Sad and pathetic.
Go buy some tiki torches and march around your block.
So people are suppose to vote for an inept person just because they are a POC? What a sad state we are in. Never mind doing what's best for the entire state. Let's just vote for the POC just so we can make history.
Not that PP, but why not Baker? He’s extremely competent. A vote for Madaleno does make it seem possible you purposely voted agaianst black candidates.
Huh? Baker is done. Jealous won the primary for the dem. party
Why didn’t you choose Baker in the primary? He has executive experience. madaleno doesnt.

So would someone also have to vote for the POC if the person had views like Clarence Thomas? Or would policy differences then give you a right to vote against a POC without being labeled a racist.

I think it depends. I know longer live in MD, but here in DC many schools have this, and it's great for working parents. Also, my child transitioned seamlessly from FT daycare, to PK3 in DCPS. It was great--teacher was wonderful, and she already had great buddies from the two prior years heading into K.
Also, I think universal pre-K can be tremendously helpful for kids from disadvantaged backgrounds.
Also for working/single parents.
You all do realize that there's already free Pre-K for families who meet the income requirements in MOCO, right? I just think we need to fix so many other things right now- transportation, attracting businesses, etc.
Most middle class families don’t qualify. But in most families women bear most of the childcare responsibility. Universal prek will help women most, regardless of class, if they want to be part of the workforce.
Fully support free Pre-K. Just worry how academic pre-K has become. I think there should be a mix of play and learning or both. (BTW I'm a former teacher living in the Appalachian part of the state. I think Jealous will do more for the people here than any Republican.)
