2 candidates have spent time in jail

Two of three candidates challenging incumbent Spokane Valley City Councilwoman Pamela Haley have spent time in jail.

One man, Ingemar Lloyd Woods, has been open about his 1993 arrest in which was accused of shooting at police. The other, Robert “Rocky” J. Samson, remains under court supervision for alleged financial crimes in Kentucky.

Haley accepted an appointment to fill a vacant seat on the council a year ago and promised to run for the seat in the next election.

But she never expected that her position would be the most hotly contested as Spokane Valley goes about filling five open seats from a group of 12 candidates/ Pia Hallenberg , SR. More here.

Question: Would you vote for someone who has spent time in jail?
