State controller to seek another term

Idaho state Controller Donna Jones is running for a second term in her post. In her announcement, Jones noted that she was the first woman elected to the office; earlier, as a six-term legislator, she was the first woman to chair the House Revenue & Taxation Committee. “Whenever you are the first to do anything people watch you pretty closely,” Jones said. “I am extremely proud of the fact that we have been able to cut budget, reduce staff, and save the taxpayers money during this first term.  My experience on House Rev and Tax and in the private sector has been a good training ground for me.” Jones, a Republican, is a former real estate broker and businesswoman, and former executive director of the Idaho Real Estate Commission. The election is in 2010.
