Jorgenson Files Complaint Against Foe

Item: Senator questions opponent's eligibility: Jorgenson files complaint with secretary of state/Alecia Warren, Coeur d'Alene Press

More Info: An Idaho senator filed a complaint with the Secretary of State's office this week contending that his opponent isn't qualified to run. Although the complaint was quickly contradicted, Sen. Mike Jorgenson, R-Hayden Lake, insists that an oversight has occurred and Steven Vick shouldn't be allowed to continue as a candidate for the District 3 seat. ... Jorgenson filed an official complaint with Secretary of State Ben Ysursa on Tuesday stating that Vick, his Republican challenger in the May 25 primary, isn't a registered voter in Idaho.

Question: What do you make of Jorgenson's complaint?
