In Kalispell: Montana’s Failed Tax Structure

In case you missed it:
Lake County Republicans prompted the Showboat Cinema in Polson to put on the Melania movie. The turnout of residents – including some beyond Lake County – was great. We filled the theater almost to the brim! What a treat to see scenes from the life of the First Lady! She is so beautiful both inside and out…
The opportunity was also offered to sign up for future information and participation, and to buy tickets for a silent auction.

The role of the judiciary as seen by District Court Judge John Mercer
On January 23, 2026, Pachyderm attendees were pondering the role of the judiciary with the help of Judge John Mercer who has experienced many ends of the spectrum of government work. John Mercer emphasized the importance of judges restraining their power. If they allow politics to be brought into their decisions, they WILL lose respect. Judges should not be biased in their decisions.
John Mercer is going to run in 2026 in order to finish the four years remaining on Judge Cotter’s term.

Great update by County Attorney Lapotka
The meeting minutes from the December 12 presentation is now available under “Who We Are/Pachyderm Club”. For example, great news about signature gathering for ballot initiatives; “There is a new legal requirement for signature gatherers – be aware for the upcoming election. The signature gatherers are required to wear name badges and state who is paying them to collect signatures!”
