Tribune Jeers Otter Decision

JEERS … to Gov. C. L. (Butch) Otter. He just weaseled out of Lewiston’s debate with Democratic challenger Keith Allred. After breaking his Oct. 7 commitment, the governor promptly agreed to appear on a conservative radio talk show program at Boise - on the same day. Set aside the fact that his campaign gave verbal and written assurances the governor would show up - and then didn’t explain its last-minute change of heart. If you live in Idaho Falls, Boise or Canyon County, the governor is so keen on getting your support that he will get on the same stage with his underdog opponent and endure an hour or so of questions and accusations. Lewiston? Moscow? Orofino? Grangeville? No so much/ Marty Trillhaase , Lewiston Tribune. More here .

Question: Does Butch Otter care more for Boise & southern Idaho than North Idaho?
