Johnson is the right pick for state senate seat

If you appreciate the guy who stalked junior high students with graphic posters in an attempt to scare them, menaced our community Farmer's Market with his bullhorn, and you’re happy with your tax dollars being used to defend a political stunt against the Festival then go ahead and vote for Scott Herndon. He’s also the guy who made false claims against Republican incumbent Jim Woodard, completely perverting Woodward’s voting record, while claiming he’s a Christian.

You may also be interested in the number of times law enforcement has been called to Herndon’s residence, which is public record. Neighbors and his own family have asked for law enforcement assistance in dealing with Herndon, and he was trespassed from the local Cowboy Church. Makes you wonder exactly why Herndon wrote five bills to the Idaho House of Representatives in an attempt to erode Child Protective Services. Is that really the kind of guy you want making decisions that impact our lives?

I’ve already sent in my absentee ballot, writing in Steve Johnson underneath Herndon’s name. Steve hasn’t menaced the public; he hasn’t wasted taxpayers' money on publicity stunts or used fear tactics toward our youth. Instead, Steve is a respected former educator, local farmer and understands that our public lands can’t be replaced and are a part of what makes Idaho such an incredible place to live. Please vote for Steve Johnson and fill in the circle next to his name so your vote and voice will be counted.
