McFarland letter: Anyone but Labrador

Anyone but Raul Labrador for Governor in 2018. If he is elected, it will be repeating the mess in Washington with the election of Donald Trump — Idaho’s smaller so it will happen more quickly. Guess I will have to register as a Republican to vote against Labrador since Idaho conveniently does not have open primaries, which truly guarantee one person, one vote. Just remember “Anyone but Labrador.” Any one of the rest professing interest in becoming governor has got to be a better choice.
