CHRG: Media Ignores CdA Watergate

Add Spokesman-Review on Google

Try as I might, sometimes I simply can’t ignore the accusations spewing from OpenCHRG.com. On Sunday, Bill McCrory accused both The Spokesman-Review and Coeur d’Alene Press of ignoring what he considers to be Coeur d’Alene’s equivalent to Watergate — the 2009 Coeur d’Alene municipal elections and losing candidate Jim Brannon’s never-ending challenge to his 5-vote loss to incumbent Mike Kennedy. Writes Bill: “The inescapable conclusion is that neither the local Coeur d’Alene Press nor its supposed regional rival The Spokesman-Review wants Idaho residents and legislators to understand just how easily Idaho’s elections can be manipulated.   Neither do they want that story spreading across the nation.” Bill goes on to say that County Clerk Dan English has been conducting elections incompetently and Idaho AG Lawrence Wasden (pictured) and Secretary of State Ben Ysursa have allowed him to do so.

Question: What do you make of OpenCHRG’s latest conspiracy theory?
