Jores express their gratitude

Editor,

The kind and generous response, both emotional and monetarily, expressed by all during the fundraiser to help with attorney fees incurred from the HD 12 election and challenge was overwhelming. To all who attended, called, wrote, emailed, donated and helped in the organization of the event, please accept my sincere and heartfelt gratitude.

As I conveyed at the event, total attorney costs were $27,618.85. I obtained a $10,000 bank note to initiate the attorney. The Republican Party agreed to pay the balance.

Previous to the fundraiser, the Constitution Party had raised $6,380.

The fundraiser was successful in raising just over $4,200, which was astounding. We now have more than enough to cover the bank note.

To those who have called expressing a desire to donate, please know that it is no longer necessary.

We don't have the words to convey the thankfulness that we have for all the wonderful friends in the valley and across the state.

Rick and Nancy Jore
