Check out this
recent article from
The Washington Post, which profiles my hometown of Damascus, MD, and how dramatically it differs culturally and politically from the rest of Montgomery County. I'm sure our county will once again elect a slate of left-wing candidates to local, state, and federal offices, but thankfully the town I live in won't be to blame for that....
There's a town in my area that has a similar problem. Seceding from the county comes up periodically up there (http://chicagoist.com/2009/04/07/secession_still_an_issue_in_palatin.php).
ReplyDeleteDoes that ever come up in your town?
Haha...that's very interesting. As far as I know that has never come up in Damascus. Maybe I should propose it!
