Merrill to run for House – but which seat?

Former Eagle Mayor Nancy Merrill has announced she’ll run for the state House from District 14, but the GOP candidate hasn’t decided which seat she’ll seek. The two seats from that district currently are held by House Majority Leader Mike Moyle, R-Star, and freshman Rep. Raul Labrador, R-Eagle. “I believe my public service in Eagle can be invaluable to the people of District 14,” Merrill said in a press release. “Local communities are affected by almost every decision made in the State Legislature and I want to use my experience to give a voice to the cities.” Moyle, of course, is known for voting with rural interests, despite representing a fast-urbanizing district. Merrill, former president of the Idaho Association of Cities, said in her release that she’ll be talking with voters in the coming weeks to “determine where she could be of the best service to the legislative district constituents.”
