Letter to the Editor
One
of the best things about our local governments is that the dysfunction of party
politics doesn’t muck up our local board rooms like it does at the State
Capital.
Chisago
County commissioners have always been a nonpartisan public service office,
meaning that our commissioners are loyal to the taxpayers of our county, not to
any political party agenda; at least they haven’t been, up to now.
Our
local Republican Party has thrown their full support behind one candidate for
county commissioner, Darrel Trulson.
They
have provided him with financial, physical and strategic support in his pursuit
of this office.
It
seems to me like the (local Chisago County) Republican Party is trying to buy
this seat on our County Board, and I can’t help but wonder why they would do
this for a nonpartisan office.
What
kind of influence are they trying to buy?
What
kind of debt will Darrel Trulson have to the Republican Party if he is elected?
I
think these are all valid question that we need to ask ourselves, along with
the most important question: Do you want to be bought, or do you want to be
served by our Chisago County commissioners?
