Welcome to the People's Republic of Montgomery County.
After last night's results, it's clear that the corrupt, incompetent, and criminal council and its operatives have further entrenched their control.
Residents writ large wanted change, demanded accountability and fair representation. But the democrat political establishment denied them, again.
What to expect: the crisis we're in will increase two-fold, with higher taxes, higher utility bills, more violent crime, worse educational outcomes, blackouts, a budgetary crisis that will increase the structural deficit to $1 billion by 2030.
Elections have consequences.
๐บ๐ธ Midterm Elections: I expected this yesterday, but I guess the market had to digest all the results before reacting.
It's not a surprise that the selloff has started and I don't see the market stabilizing anytime soon. Not only did the midterm results affect the market, but we're in the middle of a huge market correction or what the experts called a "black swan" event.
Elections have consequences.

๐บ๐ธ November 3, 2026: We're less than 24 hours away from Election Day.
๐ข We have knocked 1,000+ homes, spoke to 100s of residents, attended all the parades in District 7, filled all the candidate questionaries, and serviced all media requests.
I didn't enter politics for personal gain or notoriety, but because of my children: I saw what the council and the executive did in 2020 during the pandemic and I refused to stand on the sidelines.
๐ข I care deeply about our education, our neighborhoods, our communities, and our quality of life. We have a chance to start fixing all the is wrong with our county government.
๐ณ๏ธ You're vote tomorrow is crucial as it will determine the immediate future your our families, our children, and our communities.

๐บ๐ธ District 7 Race: The truth final comes out at the end.
๐จ During this campaign season, D7 residents got a rude awakening...
โ That their council representative @dawn_luedtke, yes, the person who is supposed to represent them has completely failed and undermined their interests in all aspects.
๐ณ๏ธ However, the message of hope and a solid platform based on facts, reality, and action has been embraced by residents and has resonated throughout D7.

๐จ SIX QUESTIONS ABOUT MONTGOMERY COUNTY COUNCILWOMAN DAWN LUEDTKEโS RECORD โ FROM TAXES AND PUBLIC SAFETY TO AIRPARK OVERSIGHT
ROCKVILLE, MD โ Democratic Councilwoman Dawn Luedtke has represented District 7 since December 2022. Her record deserves scrutiny on affordability, immigration enforcement, school accountability and the continuing problems at Montgomery County Airpark.
โช๏ธ 1. PROPERTY TAXES: Luedtke supported the countyโs 2023 budget, which included a 4.7% property tax increase. While smaller than the executiveโs original proposal, homeowners still paid more. What meaningful spending reductions did she secure?
โช๏ธ 2. IMMIGRATION ENFORCEMENT: Luedtke supported the countyโs 2026 Trust Act, restricting certain cooperation with federal immigration authorities. What measurable safeguards ensure these policies donโt interfere with public safety?
โช๏ธ 3. IMMIGRATION DETENTION: She supported county restrictions on privately operated immigration detention facilities despite existing Maryland restrictions. What practical benefit did another layer of legislation deliver?
โช๏ธ 4. PUBLIC SAFETY: Residents challenged the format of Luedtkeโs August 2026 Gaithersburg public-safety meeting and demanded answers about policing. What specific reforms or improvements resulted?
โช๏ธ 5. MCPS ACCOUNTABILITY: Luedtke criticized Montgomery County Public Schools following findings of mishandled employee-misconduct complaints. What concrete oversight results have followed those statements?
โช๏ธ 6. MONTGOMERY COUNTY AIRPARK โ YEARS OF WARNINGS, BUT WHERE ARE THE RESULTS?
The Airparkโs problems are documented in county records, not merely neighborhood complaints.
The Airpark Community Advisory Committeeโs 2025 report concluded that the Montgomery County Revenue Authority was failing to provide effective operational oversight. Findings included inadequate noise monitoring, facility maintenance problems and deficiencies in lease enforcement.
Residents have repeatedly complained about low-flying aircraft, repetitive flight-school training, noise and safety concerns.
An April 2024 incident sent an aircraft component falling onto the countyโs Public Safety Training Academy. Additional aviation emergencies and incidents prompted renewed safety concerns in 2026.
Luedtke sponsored the legislation establishing the advisory committee in 2023, participated in oversight discussions and requested an FAA investigation of Washington International Flight Academy in September 2026.
Those actions deserve acknowledgment. But creating a committee and sending letters are not the same as resolving the underlying problems.
County records also include a residentโs allegation that Luedtke failed to respond to an April 2025 inquiry for nearly a year.
The questions remain:
Where is the enforceable plan for reducing excessive aircraft noise? Why have problems with oversight, monitoring and airport management persisted? What corrective actions have followed the advisory committeeโs 15 recommendations? And what measurable safety improvements can Luedtke demonstrate?
THE BOTTOM LINE: Luedtke has taken positions on all six issues, but residents are entitled to judge the outcomes, not simply the announcements, legislation, meetings and letters.
She opposed the final fiscal 2027 county budget, citing concerns about temporary funding and future deficits. That is part of her record, too.
After nearly four years in office, what measurable improvements can District 7 residents point to in taxes, public safety, school accountability and Airpark operations? And which unresolved problems will she take responsibility for fixing?
๐บ๐ธ Sanctuary County: The priorities of @dawn_luedtke and the @MoCoCouncilMD continue to ignore you, the honest, tax-paying, hard-working county resident, who is struggling financially due to utility prices and taxes going every year.
โThis is exactly the problem. @dawn_luedtke and the rest of the Council keep expanding benefits (WPA child care assistance, higher income limits, employment deferrals) while explicitly removing immigration-status requirements โin alignment with the TRUST Act.โ
๐Citizens and legal residents in Montgomery County are still footing the bill for non-citizen children and families while middle- and working-class households get squeezed by taxes, housing costs, and waitlists. The #TrustAct already codified the Countyโs sanctuary approach. Now theyโre updating 1980s-era rules to lock it in further. What about the taxpayers who play by the rules? What about families already struggling with the CCS waitlist and rising costs?
๐ก District 7 deserves a Councilmember who puts affordability, accountability, and citizens firstโnot endless expansion of benefits without regard to status.
๐จ And people wonder why the county budget is so inflated.

๐บ๐ธ Campaign Trail: Interview with Radio America.
๐ข Had a great conversation on all things affecting the hard-working Hispanic community, who are being used as political pawns by the @MoCoCouncilMD and @MontCoExec.
๐ปTopics of discussion:
๐บCampaign
๐บ ICE raids and Trust Act
๐บ Affordability Act
๐ข The Hispanic community in District 7 deserves and demands real representation in the council, not @dawn_luedtke who told them that the #TrustAct does not have any legal weight to protect immigrants against @ICEgov because federal laws supersede local laws.

๐บ๐ฒ Agricultural Reserve: Grow agricultureโdonโt just regulate it.

๐ถ๏ธ Cut permitting delays.
๐ถ๏ธ Fast-track barns/greenhouses/wineries/farm markets
๐ถ๏ธ Expand agritourism
๐ถ๏ธ Support young farmers
๐ถ๏ธ Protect and expand supply chains

๐บ๐ธ Violent Crime: @dawn_luedtke would like you to believe that crime is down and that she and the council council have violent crime under control.
๐จ We've been saying it since 2022: The County Council along Marc Elrich are fomenting criminal activity through directed legislation that undermines the work and operations of the police department.
๐จ Are you going to vote for these incompetent county officials, again?
๐My Security Plan:
โ๏ธ Provide full financial support to the police department
โ๏ธFocus public safety on increasing police manpower over relying on drones
โ๏ธ Review the Accountability Board
๐ Our communities and our neighborhoods deserve and demand safety.
