Panel Dumps CC Election Change

The House State Affairs Committee today killed legislation that would have required community college trustees positions to be divided into zones within the college's district. That legislation, which had support from several Jerome County lawmakers, died with a 10-8 vote to hold it in the committee, which effectively kills it. The legislation had been sparked in part by the outcome of the College of Southern Idaho's board elections in November, which resulted in a five-member board of trustees all living in or near Twin Falls/Ben Botkin, Capitol Confidential, Twin Falls Times-News.

Question: WWFD? What will Frank (Henderson) do -- now that North Idaho College (against his wishes) can maintain the status quo for trustee elections?
