Montgomery Democrats Hit by Republicans in County Council Race
Montgomery County Republican leaders assailed four Democratic candidates for county council accusing them of a platform filled with inconsistencies and confusion. James R. Miller Jr. charged the Dems misled voters on zoning, pollution control, tax policy, and the farm tax shelter. Dems denied the charges as Republicans push to frame the race around four years of Republican misrule in Rockville.
