Lombardi letter: Elect Sturgill

Jerry Sturgill is well equipped, as a former Salmon River guide, lawyer and businessman, to represent the interests of Idaho in Washington. Jim McClure and other great senators knew that the interests of their constituents sometimes need to come before the immediate interests of their political parties. Sen. Mike Crapo has demonstrated by his renewed support of Donald Trump that he will put party interests before the interests of Idaho. Let’s bring Crapo back to Idaho and send Sturgill in his place. We can be confident Sturgill will represent Idaho interests and Idaho values in Washington.
