Newcomb letter: Clive Strong

I’m writing to enlist your support for Clive Strong for the Idaho Supreme Court. I’ve known Clive for 35 years. While in the Legislature he was my go-to guy on legal issues — particularly water issues. Clive is expert at mediating solutions to complex problems. I couldn’t tell you what political party Clive belongs to, but I can tell you he has made sure Idaho maintains primacy over its water. Through his whole legal career he has only had one client — the people of Idaho. Join me and vote for Clive Strong for the Idaho Supreme Court.

Bruce Newcomb (Speaker of the House 1998-2006), Boise
