Support Elgar and fight Rock Creek

| October 6, 2004 9:00 PM

If you are not against the Rock Creek Mine, you should be. The mine, if established in Montana, will negatively affect all of us in Sandpoint and Bonner County for decades, at least.

The waste from that mine will find its way into our lake and not only will the economic health of our area be put in jeopardy, but our very health and the health of our children and grandchildren will be at risk. For these reasons, I am against the mine and I will be voting for Steve Elgar.

Steve is a Democrat. Not even if you usually vote the straight Republican ticket, Steve deserves your vote because he is the only candidate against this mine.

This issue is nonpartisan and it is important. Take this opportunity to say no to the mine and vote for Steve Elgar.
