"Bad officials are elected by citizens who don’t vote."

George Jean Nathan – American Journalist & Writer

Covering Bonner and Boundary Counties and Legislative District One.

Voting is the cornerstone of our democracy. It is a privilege and a responsibility. We have fought wars, marched in the streets, passed legislation, and demanded rights from all corners of the spectrum, yet many citizens do not vote or only do so part-time.

When voters abdicate, community decisions are determined by a minority who may not serve the best interest of the community. Every vote counts. Vote your voice and help determine the future of the community in which you live.
