Man Drives Purple Bus in Bethesda

Submitted by Anonymous on Friday, September 17th, 10:01 am

There is a man driving around Bethesda in a Purple Campaign bus.

His name is Jerry Cave and he is running for the Maryland State Senate from Bethesda, (District 16).

The Purple color stands for bi-partisanship, a mix of Democrat Blue and Republican Red. It also symbolizes his position on the Purple Line which is that it should be a underground spur of the metro and not a light rail on top of the Crescent Trail which will ruin the Crescent Trail.

For more information about Jerry Cave and if his bus is heading for a stop near you, visit: www.CaveForSenate.com.
