UPDATE: Future Leaders: Idaho

Here’s the latest out of Idaho on two great state and local leaders who are in the running for the open U.S. Senate seat out west.


Gov. Butch Otter said today he has interviewed Lt. Gov. Jim Risch and Attorney General Lawrence Wasden as candidates to replace U.S. Sen. Larry Craig, who says he’s likely resign Sept. 30 following his arrest in a Minnesota airport sex sting.
Otter said he’s interviewed a total of about 19 people as potential Craig replacements, most of them by telephone. He’s spoken with Republicans Risch and Wasden in person, he said. Otter still hasn’t decided on a date in which he’ll name Craig’s replacement, if at all.
There are 19 people who warrant being interviewed on this thing out there – wow!
