Balukoff: I’m Here, Where’s Butch?

A.J. Balukoff, Democratic candidate for Idaho governor responds to Lewiston Tribune editorial wondering where he's been campaigning): Hi, Marty Trillhaase. I understand that you have been looking for me. My apologies for being a little hard to track down. It's true, I've been all over the place, talking with a lot of our fellow Idahoans. These past few weeks I have been visiting Idahoans in Bonner, Kootenai, Bonneville, Bannock, Canyon, and Bingham counties. Since my launch and throughout my visits, I have been engaging with Idahoans about their concerns with education and our economy. I have been talking with community and business leaders about what Idaho must do to turn things around. All are concerned with Idaho's crash to 50th place in education and wages, but there are great ideas and people in Idaho that are going to help turn that around! Yet a better question is, where is Gov. C.L. (Butch) Otter? Full comment here. (AP file photo)

Question: Has anyone attending an event where A.J. Balukoff, Butch Otter or Russ Fulcher were campaigning?
