… Jim Brannon’s attempt to overturn his 2009 Coeur d’Alene City Council loss to incumbent Mike Kennedy attracted a standing room only crowd to the Idaho Supreme Court hearing in Courtroom 1 of the Kootenai County Courthouse. SReporter Scott Maben told me that all 67 seats in the courtroom were full — and he was able to get in only after identifying himself as a member of the media. About a dozen people watched the approximate one hour of arguments given by Brannon attorney Starr Kelso and attorneys for the city (Mike Haman and Mike Gridley) and Kennedy (Scott Reed). I’ll post a report for Scott when he writes it. Meanwhile, we’ll probably have to wait months to learn the outcome of Brannon-v-Kennedy.
