Huckleberries Hears …

... That Kootenai County Clerk Cliff Hayes and Prosecutor Barry McHugh are filing suit against the city of Coeur d'Alene to get a judge's interpretation on the deadline for signatures for the Coeur d'Alene Recall election. As you know, City Clerk Susan Weathers has interpreted the June 19 deadline for the recallers to get about 4,300 signatures to include about 15 days necessary for the clerk's office to count the signatures. RecallCDA believes the 15 days for counting signatures extend beyond the June 19 deadline. Weathers' opinion has been upheld by the Secretary of State's office. Each of the individuals targeted for the recall election are named in the suit.
