Support Scott Herndon, Cornel Rasor and Jane Sauter

Regarding candidates for the upcoming primary, observations and questions. All seem likable enough when listening to them. How do you choose, or tell them apart?   

Campaign signs, so you'll vote for name recognition? Do the most signs win? Does it mean they are better for the job? Or have bigger bankrolls and backers? Could fewer signs mean the better candidate, but the lesser fundraiser?  

Giant postcards in my mailbox making claims? Are they true, or just marketing and spin? 

Clever sound bites. Are they true? Or useful promises made easily now, only to be broken later? Ever bought a political 'product' thinking it would perform as advertised, only to find out it was a waste of money? Promises are cheap and mistakes may be costly.

There are a couple of ways to really know: Track record and character (index.Idahofreedom.org). The first is easy to look up for current and past office holders, the second may require credible testimony or personal observation. 

Be diligent! You, your family and future generations will live with the repercussions of your vote. Mine, too. So, voter beware! Don't be swayed by signs, cards and soundbites. Choose your candidates very carefully. I have, and I'm backing the best, Scott Herndon, Cornel Rasor and Jane Sauter.
