Don't get fooled during political mud season

| April 16, 2024 1:00 AM

It is mud season! Not spring and flowers, I’m talking about Scott Herndon running for the Idaho Senate again. He got in last time because of outside money and a whole lot of lies, and he is up to his tricks again. If you are new to the area let me tell you about Scott Herndon.

I first encountered him at the farmers market as he was shoving huge pictures of dead babies into the faces of children over the objections of their parents. Then I saw him do it again at The Festival at Sandpoint. But his crowning achievement was protesting at the Catholic Church during Mass Herndon screamed at us evil Catholics, because we believed in protecting a woman’s life. He tried to disrupt Mass because women don’t deserve to survive pregnancy.

I have received three mailers so far from Herndon all of them flat out lies. The worst photoshopped a mask on Woodward and said he supports amnesty for illegal immigrants. Herndon used pictures of crazed-looking, half-naked, Hispanic men on the flyer. Why? Because Woodward voted for a non-binding resolution asking Congress to pass comprehensive immigration reform that would protect the border and allow legal farm laborers.

If you believe that all people including women and farm laborers deserve life and protection, then vote for Jim Woodward. He is the honest and caring candidate.
