Do your homework on county commissioner candidates then vote for the candidate that is right for Bonner County. This should lead you to the same conclusion I reached. Steve Lockwood is the best choice because he will listen to all his constituents, learn their issues and lead Bonner County in the right direction.

Bonner County has world class aeronautics, technology and lumber manufacturing operations so there is no reason to have an unemployment rate of 4.1 percent, which exceeds the state average of 2.9 percent. Lockwood will encourage dialogue between Idaho Department of Labor, educators and industry to see that qualified workers are available for local business to fill job openings. He is also more interested in putting the public back in public service. Serving his constituents versus raising his own salary is the right vision for taxpayers. His opponent claims to have cut $12 million from the county budget amid other taxpayer savings yet our taxes continue to increase at the maximum allowed under state law. I do not understand that math calculus.

Vote Lockwood in.
