Candidates deserve community's support

The following endorsements I' hope will help or at least, not hurt the following candidates.

Dist. 1 commissioner ' Cornell Rasor. One or two positions I may not see eye to eye on, but his opposition to the BID, for a private EMS' and against a new Juvenile Detention center gets my vote.

Dist. 2' ' Patty Palmer, same basic reasons.

Sheriff ' Either Rusho or Wheeler, though I lean to Rusho, both are opposed to the detention center' or at least want a public vote on it. They also state at least a desire to restore respect for the department.

District 1 Seat A (in Boise) ' Steve Elgar. Common sense moderate Democrat and we need to break the strangle hold neo-cons have in this state. If you must vote for a Republican, then it's Hollingsworth.
