Report: Ervin Strikes Back, Seeks Legal Action Against Political Attack Website
Montgomery County Councilwoman Valerie Ervin plans to take legal action against www.valunmasked.com, The Washington Examiner reported.
Montgomery County Councilwoman Valerie Ervin is fighting a website that anonymously posted political attacks against her, The Washington Examiner reported Wednesday.
Ervin (D-Dist. 5), of Silver Spring, plans to pursue legal action against the website, www.valunmasked.com, which attacks the councilwoman for her various political relationships.
The website says: "What you see is not what you get. Valerie's political career is all about saying one thing and doing another. Pretending to support people only to abandon them for personal gain."
"This is not the kind of thing we see [in Montgomery County]," Ervin said, according to the report. "We're better than that, and we're going to show everybody that we're going to stop these kind of attacks from happening."
Ervin has received support from County Executive Isiah Leggett (D) and fellow Councilwoman Nancy Navarro (D-Dist. 4), of Silver Spring, who have called the attacks "baseless and slanderous," according to the report.
Thanks. We'll email you the next time we update this story.

Valerie Ervin is not fit to run the County. Look at what she has done to Burtonsville! She promised to clean up and revitalize this shabby town, which has been thrown into an economic crisis because of the rt. 29 bypass. But she only made matters worse. Shame on her! She is a great double-talker.

Burtonsville is the Gateway for Eastern Montgomery County. The reason why it looks so horrible and undeveloped is BECAUSE of Valerie Ervin’s gross mismanagement, as well as Navarro's incompetence. They both should have supported residential development next to the struggling shopping center instead of embracing fabricated environmental myths by the no-growth faction that wants a park.
Ervin’s stunning lack of leadership on this critical issue has left Burtonsville locked in a crisis that could have easily been solved. She has cost the County many jobs and millions of dollars in tax revenues, harming both the business community and the landowners in the process. Just look at how she has failed Burtonsville. Such an awful record speaks for itself.

If only your 40 acres of rural land were rezoned to high density residential, all would be peachy!
