It’s that time of the year again when it’s time to make decisions as to who you are planning to vote for. The following are some of Marguerite’s and my observations as to who or what has been said that has not been truthful as relayed to us by county officials.

As we live on the water, we see what is or isn’t happening. Last year, we were told the sheriff patrolled every day along the river; that was not true and we sustained significant damage from wake boats. This year, I was told the same thing so I called the former marine division commander, who told me that the patrol boatthat had been assigned to the river was tranferred to Priest Lake several years ago and there was no regular patrol between the Long Bridge and Dover. So I asked for a sit-down with the lieutenant in charged. That never happened. So, I guess it is time for a change whereby we will once again have some honesty.

I urge you to vote for Steve Lockwood for Bonner County commisioner, District 3, and I can assure you that your vote will note be squandered not be a poor choice. I have known Steve for a long time and respect his integrity, honesty and commitment to fiscal integrity.

Vote Steve Lockwood on Nov. 6.
