Leadership in the Kootenai County Democratic Central Committee is still a little confused by what appears to be a Republican crossover into their party. "We are going to be meeting to discuss this," said Steve Bruno, vice chairman of the Democratic Party's central committee. "We are thinking about how to respond." Several unknown candidates and even some well known Republicans filed for Democratic precinct committee seats on Friday, and some believe it may be retaliation against Democrats who recently affiliated with the Republican Party to have more say in the closed Republican primary elections. "We want to get a sense of where this is coming from," Bruno said Monday. "It could create a situation that could have an impact on the party." Paula Neils, chair of the central committee, said she doesn't recognize many of the names that filed for seats on her committee/Jeff Selle, Coeur d'Alene Press. More here.
