2nd or 3rd District? | 8:48 a.m. April 7, 2008
So is Jason Chaffetz going to speak at this forum then? Its being held in his neighborhood right? Oh wait. This is where he will be voting - not running as a candidate. So easy to get these things mixed up.
How? | 12:38 p.m. April 7, 2008
How can Jason Chaffetz run for Congress in a district that he doesn't live in - He cannot even vote for himself?? His wife cannot vote for him?? His neighbors - are they all in the 2nd District?? I surely won't for for a person that won't vote for themself!


If it is a law - Does that law make any sense? This is the same problem that we have with immigration, with Abortion, etc... People taking advantage of the "loopholes" in our legal system for their personal gain and personal advantage. Jason Chaffetz should have run against Matheson in the 2nd District!!

I believe that is the right and proper thing to do. There are plenty enough qualified people running as candidates in 3rd district who have a vested interest in their own district, their own neighborhoods, for their own families and who can Vote for themselves - along with family and neighbors. This makes sense.

Jason Chaffetz does not make sense.
