Johnson is the best thing for North Idaho

| November 4, 2022 1:00 AM

Write in Steve Johnson. That said, you may ask why. I’m writing in Steve Johnson because I know I will be voting for someone:

Who is a North Idaho native who will fight for what is right for North Idaho, not a relatively recent transplant who wants us all to bend to only what HE believes is right.

Who believes in the ninth commandment of “Thou shall not bear false witness” instead of being beholding to a shady out-of-state large funding organization that has no qualms about outright lying about their opponent.

Who believes in education rather than encouraging ignorance, fear, and hate.

Who believes in cooperation and fellowship rather than absolutism and violent autocracy.

Who believes that women should have the same and equal rights of every man and are not second-class citizens who should “only speak if spoken to.”

Who believes in the right to own firearms for hunting and protection, and not just pretends to support that right and uses firearms as props and dangerous gimmicks for fraudulent agendas.

Who hasn’t cost all of us taxpayers in North Idaho many tens of thousands of dollars with one of the above said gimmicks to try and ruin the Festival of Sandpoint.

Who doesn’t tie up our law enforcement with above said gimmicks creating multiple disputes and threats with schools, events, librarians, businesses, and neighbors

Who isn’t going to shoot his neighbor’s dog.

This is not a comprehensive list. It is just some of the things that have convinced me to write in Steve Johnson. Because writing in Steve Johnson is what is the best thing for North Idaho no matter what political party you normally support or if even if you don’t adhere to any political party like me. Write in Steve Johnson.
