Bonner County voters: May matters

| May 14, 2024 1:00 AM

May matters. We need to take back reasonable governance from radical politicians and white Christian nationalists, supported by the Idaho Freedom Foundation.

Their leader is chairman Scott Herndon, who was a major player in the West Bonner County School District debacle. Herndon, Aisa Williams and the BCRCC allocated $2,000 to support Branden Durst against the WBSD recall. Their goal was to eliminate the public school system.  

Commissioner William’s intent has been to agitate, disrupt and divide her fellow commissioners. She has filed three lawsuits against past employers. At Kootenai Health, 2019, she demanded a monetary judgment in the amount more than $25,000 plus fees to be proven at trial. The complaint stated she has suffered mental anguish, loss of sleep, appetite, stress and headaches.”  

She was awarded damages of $8,105.59. In November 2009, she filed suit against SAIF Corporation, for a prayer amount of $300,000. Again, complaints list embarrassment, humiliation and emotional stress. Settlements were made in lieu of trial and are unavailable.  

I agree with Steve Wasylko’s letter (Daily Bee, Jan. 25) describing her as one who “treats every staff briefing as an inquisition, spends all her time on minutia and misses the big picture completely, is never prepared, rejects Roberts Rules, trying to make the staff and county officials look bad, is never willing to bring closure etc. …"

Will she file suit against fellow Commissioners Steve Bradshaw and Luke Omolt for mental anguish, stress, etc.? If Luke Omodt is defeated, and Ron Korn is elected Lord help us all.
