Last Chance To Run As Write-in

The deadline to run for election as a write-in candidate in one of the Nov. 4 taxing district races is fast approaching. Kootenai County Chief Deputy Clerk Pat Raffee sent out a press release Monday reminding that Friday is the last day both for write-in candidates to file, and for candidates who have already filed to withdraw. All filings must be done by 5 p.m. Friday with the taxing district office - either North Idaho College or Kootenai-Shoshone Soil and Water Conservation District - both of which are in Coeur d'Alene. To date, only incumbents have filed for NIC Trustee seats, and only two candidates have filed for three Supervisor seats in the Kootenai-Shoshone Soil and Water Conservation district/Kootenai County Clerk's Office.

Question: Have you ever voted for a write-in?
