WDFW seeks public comments on proposed hunting contest rule changes

[follow maggie]

I have a suspicion that wdfw has already made the decision, they’re just “asking” for input because they’re required to do so.

That seems to be par for the coarse for them

smith, baker 1st and second to pass ban

Thorburn opposes vigorously she strongly defended hunting contests. Too bad we dont have more like her.
Kehoe votes no and echos Thorburn No science backs this up. Acknowledges that this is pitting out of state folks and Westsiders against Eastsiders.

Anderson Votes for the Ban.
Linville Votes For the Ban... Very disappointing to me...
McIsaac said he was inclined to vote for but i could not hear his vote
Smith also inclined that he would vote for it but i could not hear it.

couldnt quite make out the voice call but the ban passed

Larry Carpenter is the Chair and doesnt vote unless a tie happens

SO now its time to thank Thorburn and Kehoe and tell the rest of them to hit the road.......thanks for nothing and dont let the door hit you in the .

7-2 guess i was wrong about the Chair not voting...
