DearLinda,
This letter is to infonn you of egrcgious problems regarding elections, and unfornrnately
.

justice wi[hin the Treasure State. I hold an Educators Licearse signed by you, and we first
met at the 2001 MEA annuai meeting at the capitol. I was a studeot teacher delegate, and
as

tbe first studeartto pass ar ageirda item in front of the

far as

full delegation.

l*o*,
With that being said, it pains me greatly to share what I must tell you. Before I do, I am
very imprpssed with you initial rejection of bonus checks issued by Brad Jobnson. You
are a shining star

within

a

very troubled state.

i

For the sqcond time, I have attempted to zubmit recall petitions against my elected

officials ih Ravalli County. Equalprotection bas been violated bothtimes. The Recall
i

Act is simpler tban a 5s grader canunderstand. This is too mueh for Regina Plettenberg.
I

When theilaw is not follorved, and all people are not ffeated equally this violates equal

protectiorf. My right to petition my govemment was aiso violated (twice). My right to
Recall wds violated twice. As

I explained io Ms. Plettenberg, I am not trying to

I

electocute anyone, merelybring an election challenge.
I

I

The legal janalysis is pathetic at best, and is protecting rogue officers.

Ravalli c4uoty further believes that all 29,000 eligible persons from 18 to 99 are
I

registere{ You know this is not possible and is burdensome governmeirt.

I

I

A governinent should help and protect it's people, not maliciously har:n them. Such is
i

the case $,{th Ravalli County. I was a decorated FEMA officer until a fake arrest warrarxt
i

was iszue$

in2007. Steve Bullock, curtent AG tlreatened the loss of my home in

Hamiltoni and my job with FEIvIA if I questioued Ravaili County. I was cited by the
Ravalli County Sheriff for defending my home from being bumt down by a dnrnken

neighbor. Combustibles were stacked to the roof of my home which the state fire
marshal stated on two visits was "...obviouslv

a

violation."

I have previous contact with Allen Miller of your office, since I worked for Ralph
Nader's 2004 campaign in two states.

The curre,nt signature requirement in Ravalli County asks for nearly 4500 signatures for
any initiafive, or independent candidate for offi,ce

locally. I couidput myself on as a

candidate for US President with 5000 signatures. Does this sound like control to you?

It

seems that Ms. Plettenberg has no business being an election administrator.

More on the state problems: The group I was a part of in Hamilton found serious
problems or criminal activity within the Bar Association, Judicial Commission, Higbway

Patol, Supreme CourL and the Montana Justice Departrnent. Ravalli County loves to
nrin lives, even encourage 5 couaty detainees to take their own in 2005.

As I started this letter, I wanted to state the respect I have for you, and your service to

Montana. This is no joke, and people here are suffering and dying at the hands of this
problem that

I am presenting to you. We have contacted

are not sure of their

the US Justice Deparh::.en! but

efforts. The Hamilton Police chief will be trainedby the FBI in

Washington, DC this year. When a citizen cannot trust courts, attorneys, or any aspect

of

their justice system, why should your elections person nottum to your in house counsel?

My options

are to become a foreign national

(if my rights are not to be upheld, I don't

want them), or flee my home in Ravalli County. Acts of intimidation are also coming my
way, with even attempts atphysical harm.

Please do what you can to provide

a

just elections departnent in 56 counties in Montana.
