Electioneering trial approaches
A former poll worker accused of misconduct during last November’s local elections is expected to stand trial next month. Laura L. Van Voorhees of Hayden is charged with electioneering, a misdemeanor offense punishable by a fine of up to $1,000. A one-day trial is scheduled for the week of Sept. 6. Kootenai County Prosecuting Attorney Barry McHugh told The Press last year electioneering complaints are rare and that his office has not previously prosecuted any case related to electioneering.
MY TURN: Party politics, NIC and common sense
In response to Brent Regan’s “Elephant Metamorphosis” commentary of Aug. 5 I would like to proclaim disinterest in political parties. More important to our government is the promulgation of good policy rather than the political affiliation of those who would promote good policy. Entities typically start as a movement for change then develop into a business and finally terminate as a racket. This metamorphosis is well known. People who would promote good policy see an unfilled need and have the farsighted altruistic drive to work toward accomplishing their goal for the betterment of the society of which they are a member. Far right and far left members of society, by definition, don’t reflect the core beliefs of the majority.

Broschet announces candidacy for NIC trustee seat
Pete Broschet, who lives in the Hauser Lake area, announced on Tuesday that he is running for the Zone 5 seat on the North Idaho College Board of Trustees in November. A self-described "common-sense conservative," Broschet says he is low-key and no nonsense when it comes to serving on the college board. “I want to bring professional, principled conservative leadership to NIC,” said Broschet, in a news release announcing his candidacy. “I am a fiscally conservative person. I understand what other conservatives want and what is needed. I am here to bring those wants and needs to reality.”

MY TURN: Telling it like it is
Last week, I opened my favorite paper to see once again the Kootenai County Republican Central Committee Chairman Brent Regan using a platform to spread his version of events that just doesn’t ring true. He first addressed party politics that were of course divisive. Then he launched into a diatribe about North Idaho College. I have ignored the nonsense from the KCRCC under the leadership of Regan for many years while watching my friends stand up and address the mistruths. Today I must join them in rejecting the outright falsehoods. Regan’s version of what occurred with the trustees on the NIC Board is quite the fairy tale.
Plass announces run for NIC trustee seat
Tim Plass announced his candidacy for the NIC Trustee Zone 5 position. Plass, of Rathdrum, has been a resident of Kootenai County for over 25 years in the Post Falls and Rathdrum areas, where he and his wife, Julie, raised their 10 children, seven of whom have four-year degrees. He has had six children attend NIC with five of them earning an associate degree there and one also graduating from the NIC nursing program.

REGAN: Astonishing lack of self-awareness
In his latest trip to the soapbox on Friday, Mr. Regan once again displayed an alarming lack of self-awareness.
NIC: Trustee Wold is a dedicated community volunteer
I want to congratulate Dr. David Wold, John Goedde and the other members of the volunteer North Idaho College Board of Trustees who have worked so hard to return North Idaho College to the academic position it should be.
