$28,000 dollar Whatcom County Jail mailer generates anger and mistrust among county residents

Just when I thought the local elections couldn't get more ho hum: Whatcom County decides to mail a "informative" community brochure to one registered voter per household, at the same time ballots are mailed. So, now you might be thinking - why would anyone's tail be tied in a knot over a silly flyer? Well, if you're not a registered voter, you will not receive a copy of the informative community flyer in the mail. Apparently, non-voting members of the community don't need information about the costs of the proposed jail. They just need to pay for it.
