Gookin: Military Ballots Out Early

In response to Larry Spencer’s letter in Wednesday’s Coeur d’Alene Press (“Election: Right to question results” ), former City Council candidate Dan Gookin said that the military ballots went out early. Quoth: “I remember it because my campaign was informed that the ballots were ready about a week early.” There’s been some insinuation by the usual suspects — and their platoon of crazed keyboard commandos — that the county elections office didn’t send out the military ballots on time, prompting an angry response from mild-mannered Dan of the County.
