Graves Challenges Technology Ban

Item: Unplugged: Coeur d'Alene City Council candidate won't be able to use iPad during forum/Tom Hasslinger, Coeur d'Alene Press

More Info: A Coeur d'Alene City Council challenger is upset that he won't be able to use his iPad at Thursday's candidate forum, a rule he called "outdated" and one that drew a strong reaction from the political hopeful after it was brought to his attention. After further review, Adam Graves, vying for Seat 1, said he understands why the city is prohibiting personal technological devices for the question and answer session, though he still thinks his iPad shouldn't be barred.

Question: Has this flap hurt or helped Adams Graves in his bid to unseat incumbent Ron Edinger?
