Treasurer Crane ducks questions

Betsy Russell at the The Spokesman-Review has a story on State Treasurer Ron Crane’s refusal to discuss why the credit-rating committee he chairs never meets. Nor would Crane comment on why his office delayed posting notice of a Securities and Exchange Commission violation that got only a passing mention in the committee’s 2016 annual report (see page 4). It’s the latest instance of the state treasurer, one of the state’s constitutional officers, ducking questions when it comes to discussing critical or negative findings about his office/ Bill Dentzer , Idaho Statesman.
