Republican Lt. Governor, Brad Little:
Former County Commissioner David Stewart:
"As a former Kootenai County Commissioner, I witnessed firsthand Jim Brannon’s honesty, fairness and commitment to conservative values. During the budget hearing process, Jim and his staff made the process as efficient and streamlined as possible.
Every year Jim would make suggestions to the BOCC on how government may run more efficiently and reduced the clerk’s office annual budget. During indigent hearings, Jim and his staff consistently applied the law while having compassion for those in need of county services. The clerk’s office is tasked with safeguarding protected and sensitive information. Jim understands Idaho Code and has fought to maintain separation of powers and duties of the clerk’s office against extremists who would like to have access to this information.
This coming January, there will be two new commissioners sitting on the BOCC. The re-election of Jim Brannon as Kootenai County Clerk will help bring stability to county government for years to come. Please join me and vote to re-elect Jim Brannon for Kootenai County Clerk".... Read more here at the cdapress...

He is a charming but unassuming man who does not steal the spotlight. Jim needs no fanfare and he builds no cult of personality. He just quietly does his job with competence and no melodrama.
It is pricelessly rare to find an elected official who is genuinely there to use his talents to serve dutifully, rather than feed his ego or make a bigger name for himself. Jim is this; a hard working and skillful quiet man of action. I measure his success by what we do not read in this paper. The Clerk’s Office under Jim Brannon is not a source of news because it is focused on serving the public, rather than bolstering the reputation of its administrator..." Read more here...
