Citizens of the City and County of Missoula, it is time to publicly acknowledge that the City of Missoula is being run by the Marxists of the Marxist Democrat Party.  We have laughingly referred to Missoula as socialist in the past.  It is no longer a laughing matter, and we better start taking action to…

Dr. Annie Bukacek’s careful attention to detail and the voracious and meticulous research she has done during her time as a member of the Flathead County Health Board are notable. She has taken her role on the board very seriously and it is noteworthy that not only did she recognize the real truth about the reality of…

If Ronalee Skees was unable to stand up for individual liberty and defend her own record as a member of the Flathead County Health Board, how can District 11 voters trust she will stand up for what is right if she is elected?
