Congratulations to home school hero, Rick Jore, who today won his recount battle for a seat in the Montana State legislature. This means that Montanans have three parties represented in their state legislature, Democratic, Republican and Constitution. With the Republican and Democratic parties locked in a near heat for control over the legislature, it means that the Constitution Party will hold special influence as a potential deal-make or breaker in the legislature. Rick is a very special man who has fought long and hard for biblical and constitutional freedoms in Montana. He is highly respected and has proven himself faithful as a father, as well as a legislator (he is a former Republican). It was my pleasure to once be an intern mentor at HSLDA for his son-in-law, Mark Springer.
