BRANNON: Honest, fair, conservative

As a former Kootenai County Commissioner, I witnessed firsthand Jim Brannon’s honesty, fairness and commitment to conservative values. During the budget hearing process, Jim and his staff made the process as efficient and streamlined as possible. Every year Jim would make suggestions to the BOCC on how government may run more efficiently and reduced the clerk’s office annual budget. During indigent hearings, Jim and his staff consistently applied the law while having compassion for those in need of county services. The clerk’s office is tasked with safeguarding protected and sensitive information. Jim understands Idaho Code and has fought to maintain separation of powers and duties of the clerk’s office against extremists who would like to have access to this information.

This coming January, there will be two new commissioners sitting on the BOCC. The re-election of Jim Brannon as Kootenai County Clerk will help bring stability to county government for years to come. Please join me and vote to re-elect Jim Brannon for Kootenai County Clerk.
