Harney County voters solidly reject effort to oust county judge who opposed Ammon Bundy

Source: The Oregonian

Harney County Judge Steve Grasty on Tuesday beat a recall aimed at politically punishing him for standing up to occupation leader Ammon Bundy.

Unofficial final returns from Harney County Clerk Derrin "Dag" Robinson Tuesday night showed the recall failed 70% to 30%

It was the second time in two months Harney County voters stood by elected officials who criticized Bundy's takeover of the Malheur National Wildlife Refuge in January. County commissioner Pete Runnels was elected from a field of four to succeed Grasty.

Grasty, a former auto parts store owner, has been county judge since 1999. He chairs the three-person county commission and performs limited judicial duties in a nonpartisan role. His third term ends in January.

It would be a waste since even a little birdie like that might make for a good dinner




Don't worry, I wouldn't eat a little birdie like that...

There can never be a prison too remote, too dirty or too diabolical for the likes of your stupid family.
