Jeff Ward, president of the Kootenai County Reagan Republicans, announced Thursday he is running for the state Legislature. "It's a crucial time to do something like this," Ward said. Ward will seek to replace Frank Henderson, of Post Falls, who will not run again for his District 3 House seat. Ward, 49, of Post Falls, made his announcement atthe Reagan Republicans luncheon at Fedora Pub and Grille in Coeur d'Alene. The economy has been destroyed by decisions made in Washington, D.C., and people in Post Falls are suffering, he said. "It's time that somebody on the state level came up and said we're going to try and improve things," Ward said/David Cole, Coeur d'Alene Press. More here.

Question: If the GOPrimary race for Rep. Frank Henderson's House District 3 seat came down to Jeff Ward or Jeff Tyler, who would you vote for?
