ELECTION: City system is tested

| May 21, 2010 1:02 PM

 Coeur d’Alene is about to take on a task that all veterans fought to make real. It’s your vote.         The one item that has kept us free.

 The challenge to the last election will determine if your vote really counts or can it be replaced by a stuffed ballet box or an illegal count or a judge that stalls until the challenge goes away. How the court treats this challenge will tell the people just how true our judicial system is and if there is a “Godfather” in CDA that pulls the strings to local elections. 

“My vote doesn’t count” could be more truth then fiction. But then only 26 percent of the eligible voters are being cheated. The rest of you let this happen. Trust me when I tell you that if all had voted this would never have happened.
