Ferch letter: Elect Rick Visser

TJ Thomson isn’t publicly identifying himself as an Obama-inspired Democrat on his signs, website or not even at some open house events.

If you believe, “Barack Obama had such a profound impact on my life that I decided to run for public office. He’s not a partisan choice, but [his presidency] is in the best interest of our country,” wouldn’t you proudly declare it publicly? Not telling voters that he stands in the political camp of Hillary, Pelosi and Obama is deceptive. Someone following Hillary’s model of deception is not right for Ada County.

Vote Rick Visser for county commissioner.

Greg Ferch, Boise
