Womble Carlyle doesn’t discuss Bob Ehrlich’s client relationships. Yet, over the weekend, his own spokesperson said that Bob Ehrlich has done work for the casino developer.
So which is it Bob?
Andy Barth told the Washington Post that Ehrlich has represented the casino developer “as a lawyer but not as a lobbyist.”
Last year, Ehrlich’s team at Womble Carlyle confirmed that they were “helping the Cordish Company with its plan to develop the slots facility near the Arundel Mills Mall…Specifically, we’ve been asked to identify and build community support for the plan and for the zoning legislation pending before the Anne Arundel County Council.”
That sounds like lobbying to us.
It’s time for Bob Ehrlich to come clean about what he’s been doing for the last four years. We know his firm lobbies for Big Oil, Big Tobacco, and Big Wall Street Banks. And now Ehrlich’s campaign admits that Bob Ehrlich was working to put a slots casino at the Arundel Mills Shopping Mall.
What else has Bob Ehrlich been doing that he doesn’t want you to know about? It’s time for Bob Ehrlich to come clean and release his full client list.
Bob Ehrlich has taken issue with new ads that highlight his record on Big Oil and his recent job as a lobbyist. It’s not surprising that he’s upset because he’s been exposed for who he really is. However, when you’re on record talking about your position on oil drilling and what you’ve been up to the last few years you can’t feign outrage and deny it with a straight face. We’ve asked Bob time and time again to come clean to voters about his record. It’s clear that he intends to do the exact opposite.
This new video highlights the facts regarding his record as a lobbyist and a pawn for Big Oil.
