Political Clippings

The Coeur d’Alene Pressreports that Post Falls, Idaho, businessman Richard Phenneger, 71, a retired Air Force and airline pilot, “wants to restore ethics and accountability to the U.S. Senate. Which is why at 71 years of age, he’s . . . seeking the seat currently held by Republican Larry Craig,” who is retiring. “Phenneger commissioned a survey by Robinson Research, a Spokane polling company, to test the political climate in North Idaho. He presented a thick data file that shows only 21 percent of Idahoans are happy with Senate candidates Jim Risch and Larry LaRocco. The poll surveyed 400 Idaho residents between Nov. 26 and Dec. 12.” Also running for the open seat are Republicans Rex Rammell, Scott Syme and Ken Marmon.
