Dear Penguin
I live just east of Flower Avenue and would have sworn my block was in Takoma Park. But then I learned there was no voting ward in Tuesday’s election for me, as apparently I live in East Silver Spring. My mail is delivered to Takoma Park, zip code 20912. Google Maps tells me I live in Silver Spring, zip code 20912.
One Takoma Park city council member told me the long-standing boundaries are peculiar. Terrific, but can I vote in Takoma Park’s elections or what?
