Mary Urges Troops: It’s ‘Go Time’

In her latest newsletter, Mary Souza is cheerleading the attempt by Kootenai County conservatives to take over school boards and highway district positions. She announces that it’s “go time” for these elections in Coeur d’Alene and Post Falls. She urges her readers — both of them — to make sure that they not only vote but they get 10 people to the polls, too. Which isn’t a bad suggestion for those of you who want to see the other guys win. Mary goes on to say that her readers have no reason to gripe if they can’t be part of the solution. Obviously, the uberconservatives want to extend the beachhead they have in the Kootenai County commissioners office and Idaho Legislature into the schools and highway districts. The city councils will be next. You can read Mary’s comment here.

Question: Do you even know who’s running in your school zone or highway district?
