Afternoon Question (4/6/05)
Republican Phil Harris kisses his wife, Lorene, after winning re-election in 2002.
Issue: Spokane County hires third Harris son: Commissioner says he had no role in decision/Amy Cannata, SR.
DFO: So, all three sons were hired since Commissioner Phil Harris was first elected in 1994. What are the odds that three brothers would be hired for a county job, if they didn't have a friend/father in high places? The hirings don't pass the smell test.
Question: Would you have a problem if three children of one of your county commissioners were on the county payroll?
