DanOTC Mulls Run, Not Naming Seat

Dan Of The Community: Yes, I will acknowledge that I am strongly considering a run for public office. I still have to resolve a few critical decision points. If I do run, you will know by the middle of next week. If I don’t then it won’t matter which race(s) I may have been considering so I’m not going to go there. But I will answer a few questions that are probably relevant anyway. Would I still run as a Democrat in Kootenai County? Yes, because that is what I am. No DINO, RINO, or the political equivalent of a wife swapper here. Probably the bigger question is why even consider it. Ironically, my answer is essentially the same that Cliff Hayes gave when he was asked why he was going to run against me as County Clerk (and it turned out pretty good for him).

Question: Which office should Dan run for, given the fact that he lives in Twin Lakes?
