Mum’s the word for Rep. Scott

On social media, state Rep. Heather Scott, Tea Party/Blanchard, freely shares her ideas. But she avoids public exposure in regular media. When asked to comment re: the claim that her followers bothered a volunteer organizer for Democrats in Bonner County, she didn’t. Also, she refused to comment when Betsy Russell/Eye on Boise asked candidates for North Idaho legislative races about any felonies, misdemeanors or bankruptcies:

“Two candidates, both incumbents, refused to answer the question, Reps. Heather Scott, R-Blanchard, and Sage Dixon, R-Ponderay. My own initial checking of Idaho court records showed nothing but traffic violations for either of the two. Scott paid a $43 fine for a mudflap violation in Kootenai County in 2001. Dixon had a handful of traffic violations, including a $10 seatbelt fine in August of 2016, speeding tickets in 2013 and 2006, a $53 fine for failure to yield at a stop sign in 2004, and another $10 seatbelt fine in 2003.” More here.
