Both Caires and MacDonald favor restoring the position. Currie, who once agreed, has changed his mind, calling the idea wasteful and ineffective and saying there's a reason no other county in Idaho operates that way. By the time salary, benefits and associated overhead expenses are added up, it would cost the county more than $200,000 a year he estimates. And the administrator would still oversee only half of county government, because that person would have no authority over other elected county officials and their offices/SR Editorial Board.

Question: Who will Independent Bob Macdonald pull more votes from? Rick Currie? Or Steve Caires?
