In case you were wondering where the Kootenai County Reagan Republicans are re: the North Idaho College elections … Jeff Ward has introduced Paul Mathews as a RR on the RR Facebook page. Mathews is running against incumbent Judy Meyer for Seat A. Meyer has served on the Idaho Board of Education and, along with her husband, Steve, donated $1 million to building the Health & Science Building at the college. She's a superb, nonpartisan trustee. So you can see why the Reagan Republicans might want to take her out.
Question: The Reagan Republicans have succeeded in pushing the Coeur d'Alene School Board to the Hard Right. Do you want to see the same thing happen with the North Idaho College Board of Trustees?
