Marc Elrich prepares formal launch of Montgomery County Executive reelection campaign


Montgomery County Executive Marc Elrich (D) confirmed this past spring that he intended to run for reelection in 2022. Now that the election is a year away, Elrich is preparing to formally launch his campaign with a series of launch parties this month. The events will be held in Takoma Park this coming Saturday, November 6, 2021; Saturday, November 13 in Kensington; and Sunday, November 21 in Germantown. 

"Whether it's getting us safely through the pandemic, pushing for ambitious steps to mitigate climate change, or transforming our approach to public safety, Marc wants to continue working for you and the public good," Elrich's campaign said in an email to supporters. The email also asks that attendees be fully-vaccinated and wear a mask to the parties. 

Elrich so far has two confirmed challengers in the Democratic primary, County Councilmember Hans Riemer (D) and businessman David Blair (D); Councilmember Tom Hucker (D) is exploring a possible campaign. No candidates from other political parties have announced a run for the office yet.

Biggest blowhard in America. Please voters, make what's going to happen to Terry McAuliffe happen to this guy. How bout some time on the treadmill too? He looks like he's going to keel over any minute.

This hypocrite windbag should never serve in Office again. MoCo deserves better than him.

Last night in VA should be a neon sign for all Dems in this county. Sadly, there aren't any Independent or Republican challengers but still, VA stomping should give folks like Elrich pause because Youngkin swung a ton of Democrats fed up by all the BS which Elrich and County Council have a graduate degree in. Is Loudoun that different from here on education issues and more? No, it really isn't. Send him home.

All African-American and Jewish-American voters should realize that the Dems are not their friends.
