ELECTION: Letters to the editor and opinions

| March 24, 2023 1:00 AM

The ballots for the upcoming May 16 election will include candidates running for highway district commissioner positions, water and sewer district board seats, and Kootenai Hospital District and Community Library Network trustee positions. There will also be school district levy requests on the ballot.

After today, we will publish letters endorsing or opposing candidates and school levies from Press subscribers only, to ensure our customers have the opportunity to share their knowledge and thoughts on the elections that impact them.

We will not publish any My Turns endorsing or opposing levies or candidates.

Rules for candidate and levy election letters:

Letters can be no longer than 275 words.

Only one candidate or levy election letter per writer.

Don’t wait long to submit your letter. Writers who wait until just a few days before the election risk not having their letters published at all.

The last day The Press will publish election letters is May 10.

Subscribers, write your letter and email it to: letters@cdapress.com

Be sure your name, city of residence and telephone number are on the letter. Your phone number will not be published.

While we prefer letters to be emailed, hand-written and typed letters are allowed. Drop them off at The Press, 215 N. Second St. in downtown Coeur d’Alene, or mail them to:

Maureen Dolan, Managing Editor, Coeur d’Alene Press, 215 N. Second St., Coeur d’Alene, ID 83814
