Irishman: Kennedy Stuck In Middle

Irishman: I think the Idaho election laws are a mess. I think Mike Kennedy got stuck in the middle of a bad situation that was not of his doing and certainly not his fault. I think the opencda crowd, which i’m not convinced are all that open, despise Kennedy and opted for the shortsighted approach of attempting to undo the election rather than trying to right the wrongs of the election laws that caused this dustup in the first place. Sorry if i rambled, listening to some very cool Frank Sinatra as i type.

Question: There’s one wrong that should be righted by the Idaho Legislature next year, as a result of this sour-grapes election challenge. The winner of a close local election shouldn’t be forced to defend himself in court when questions arise about the process. Is there anything you’d like to see changed as a result of the Brannon Election Trial?
