Daily Bee: No to Mueller-Rich Commish Ticket

Full Sunday editorial by David Keyes/Bonner County Daily Bee here

Bud Mueller had an abysmal record as a county commissioner from 1998 to 2001. He proudly takes credit for axing the county’s building department and has the same plans for the EMS system and planning and zoning. Yes, that’s right. Mueller is advocating no planning and zoning in a county that needs planning and zoning. He also sees EMS as a waste of taxpayers’ dollars. He wants private firms to respond to medical calls. We have tried that here and it didn’t work. Rich would bring nothing to the commission but a mercurial temper and an inability to work through issues or hear opposing views. Unfortunately, the Republican faithful hoped that Rich might be a calming influence on Mueller if they are both elected. Rich has proven to be nothing more than a puppet (or Homecoming party crashing date) for Mueller — David Keyes /Bonner County Daily Bee.

Question: What have you done to encourage others to vote against the Mueller-Rich ticket?
