Valerie Ervin criticizes Ben Jealous as she supports Rushern Baker for Maryland governor

Ervin contrasted the California-born Jealous, whom she called a “carpetbagger,” with Baker, whom she called a “stalwart son of Maryland.”

Jealous campaign manager Kevin Harris shot back with a dig at Ervin’s origins.

“It’s ironic someone from New Mexico would allege another candidate is a carpetbagger, but what else would you expect from a person who lies about how and why they lost their job?” Harris said. “Rushern Baker must be pretty desperate to want that kind of support."

what a disgusting comment from Valerie. I was a supporter of her story, being the first black woman on the Montgomery County Council. Carpetbagger is such a vile and disgusting description of a fellow african american.

Bruh

When did Valerie heel turn?

Bro, shyt honestly came out of nowhere. I was just bragging to someone the other day about the quality of candidates we were fortunate to chose from and then this.

The fact Rushern hasn't said anything denouncing the comments seals the deal for me.

She blames Ben for her losing her job

And Baker's comment

Valerie Ervin criticizes Ben Jealous as she supports Rushern Baker for Maryland governor

At the news conference, Ervin did not address the future of her campaign funds.

Instead, she expressed disdain for Jealous, whom she blames for getting her fired from a job with a progressive advocacy group when she joined the Kamenetz ticket.

Her feelings are an about-face from last year, when she tweeted that Jealous was a progressive champion of working people.

Asked what has changed, Ervin said: “Everything’s changed.”

She refused to say whether she would join in a display of Democratic unity if Jealous wins the primary and goes on to challenge Republican Gov. Larry Hogan.

Ervin accused Jealous of running a dishonest campaign.

“The character that he is showing in Maryland is not the character of the next governor of Maryland that I want to support,” she said.

Ervin contrasted the California-born Jealous, whom she called a “carpetbagger,” with Baker, whom she called a “stalwart son of Maryland.”

Jealous campaign manager Kevin Harris shot back with a dig at Ervin’s origins.

“It’s ironic someone from New Mexico would allege another candidate is a carpetbagger, but what else would you expect from a person who lies about how and why they lost their job?” Harris said. “Rushern Baker must be pretty desperate to want that kind of support."

Baker appeared delighted to have the endorsement, even as Ervin boasted that there was little “fire” in the race until she brought it there. He indicated that if he wins in November, there would be places for Ervin and Johnson, a former Baltimore County school board member, in his administration.

The county executive praised the two women for their experience with public budgets and, without naming him, took a swipe at Jealous’ spending proposals.

“How do you pay for that,” Baker said. “What are you willing to cut?”
