Special to Huckleberries Online: “Well we have not filed because … [left-leaning Hucksters jump to your own ridiculous conclusions here] … we haven’t spent enough money. We will not break the $500 threshold on campaign activities in 2009 for Sunshine filing and we spent $297.86 last Friday on our little flyer endorsing Brannon, Gookin and Adams, which means we did not break the per candidate $100 threshold requiring an independent expenditure filing. I have attached my email to the city clerks office explaining this. We are going to file a C-4 with the city on the due date tomorrow anyway… because I don’t want to be blamed for the 17 minute gap or Dukakis riding in a tank”/president Jeffrey Ward, Kootenai County Reagan Republicans. More here.
Question: Are you satisfied with Jeffrey Ward’s explanation?

that depends on what the definition of “is” is
nic on October 27 at 8:46 a.m.
No. And Ward’s explanation is rather snide and accusatory.
bondgirl on October 27 at 8:47 a.m.
I agree with nic- Ward is not telling us all of the truth…

About as satisfied as I am with the idea of Jim Brannon being on the city council. The right wing of the republican party has lost its way. Let Jeff Ward destroy any chances of his candidate winning a seat on the city council.

These people frighten me.

Factchecker- your not alone.

I would like to know when did our city elections come down to this type of actions???

I’m satisfied that he’s an arrogant idiot.

Oh,Oh, Reagan Republicans are in for it now. The Clerk will file an action for burdening their office with superfluos, needless, time wasting paper work. (But, didn’t she ask why the filings were not on her desk?)
