FILLIOS: Good for all residents

I have known Bruce Mattare for a few years. I know him to be an individual who has a propensity to create suffering for others, and he appears to take pleasure in it. I have documentation to support this claim.

Check out the YouTube channel “Kootenai Rants” for examples of Mattare’s dishonest, mean-spirited and unethical demeanor.

Mattare wants to raise your taxes and deny you a right to vote on the form of government under which our county operates. He is undiplomatic, and he is confrontational.

Utilizing Saul Alinsky tactics, Mattare values the chaos he causes because it deflects voters’ attention from the real issues he cannot address properly. Mattare manipulates facts to deceive and confuse the voters. I do not recommend Mattare for county commissioner.

Chris Fillios, who I have known for several years, has served our community with utmost integrity, competence and respect. Chris recognizes he serves us ALL no matter your place in life or your political affiliation.

Chris wants you to have a say on the form of government under which our county operates.

Oftentimes, very painstakingly, Chris makes thoughtful decisions that meet his obligation to his constituents always with your health, safety and general welfare in mind. Chris is a trustworthy and honorable public servant.

Chris will continue to serve us in a principled manner; he is not beholden to any special interest group. I cannot say the same for Mattare.

Chris is capable of tackling the many issues the BOCC faces. A vote for Chris Fillios is a vote for competent and effective governance.
