Letter: Hold your nose & vote GOP

In a letter to the Sandpoint Reader, Rick Price, of Sagle, urges Democrats and Independents to hold their noses and vote in the GOP primary election May 17:

“If you are one of those people who gets hives thinking about voting Republican, I can sympathize, but it’s really not as bad as it sounds and when it’s the only way to have a voice in an important election, I believe you have a moral imperative to do so.  Remember it is our tax dollars that pay for this election.  Despite Republican attempts to limit who votes in the primary, it is a public election and we are citizens.  I’ve been doing it the past two years.  It’s easy, and I get the same satisfying feeling of civic pride when I leave the voting booth that I always have in the past.” Full letter here.

Question: Are you a clothespin Republican?
