Strong commissioners

March 5, 2024 by Guest Post

by John Grant, Hamilton

Our County Commissioners are to be commended for how they dealt with, head on, a national campaign to question the integrity of County election systems and by inference, question the professionalism of our County Clerk and Recorder and her staff. This invasive, baseless and faceless assault is shamelessly promoted by an utterly discredited, nearly bankrupt conspiracy junkie.

The manner with which the Commissioners handled the entire matter displayed patience, total transparency with public input and solid leadership.

Senator Theresa My Pillow on the other hand, showed none.

    I must disagree with you. If you had seen them knuckle under to the John Birchers at the meeting a couple of weeks ago, you wouldn’t use “strong” and “commissioners” in the same letter. A jbs spokesman asked them one by one if they believed the 2020 election was stolen and each timidly answered yes. The only thing missing was them saying “sir.” They are spineless.

      I agree with your comments Wayne and still the Commissioners did not cave to the national noise as it relates to Ravalli County elections. To me that is fundamental to “local” and exposes the hypocrisy of the entire JBS nonsense of “get the Fed out”.
      Thanks for your thoughts.
