District failed to spread word about levy vote

| August 10, 2009 9:00 PM

I am writing to express my extreme unhappiness over the recent Priest River schools levy election.  I feel this is one of the most dishonest elections I have ever heard  of.  The reason for my feelings is that people only in the city limits of Priest River were notified.

Those of us who are in the surrounding areas had no notification about it at all.  I have spoken to many who  live in the outskirts of Priest River who say they never received any notification and are as angry as I am.  It was never mentioned in the Bonner Bee, that I know of.

Priest River schools has made many enemies as a result of this election and by notifying everyone about it.  The mails were never used.  I can assure the school district that by not making sure everyone was notified, you have created many enemies and none

supporters.  I am sure you will pay for this in the long run with future elections.
