Things are heating up in Montgomery County, as board of education candidates are finalized. Outside of the at-large race, which is going to be very interesting, the race for District 4 looks like it could bring some fireworks.
Two new candidates have entered the race for District 4: Laura Stewart and Bethany Mandel. Both registered democrats, they contain very different perspectives and approaches.
We will do a deep dive over the coming months but there was one thing that really stood out to us. Laura Stewart has locked down her Twitter account. What had been available pre her announcement was quickly locked down. This is interesting as Laura on her campaign page tells voters to elect her because she will bring transparency. How does someone bring transparency when the first act they take after filing is to lock down a repository of her views and stances on a myriad of different issues?
