SANDPOINT — With local elections just around the corner, Idaho Secretary of State Phil McGrane makes it clear that the system is safe, secure and ready for Tuesday.

McGrane, who toured North Idaho in advance of the Nov. 7 local elections, said the visits allowed him to touch base with county clerks and discuss election operations to ensure they have what they need for Tuesday.

"As we're making policy in terms of uniformity of an election, it's really easy to sit here in the Capitol building and say, 'Oh, everyone should do X, Y and Z,'" McGrane said. "It's a whole other thing when you go out and you get to see the contrast between St. Maries versus Idaho Falls."
