Campaign Bias Alleges Incumbents Split Veterans Council
The Metro Area Veterans Council launched a campaign to elect City Hall candidates who back veterans. President Robert Kacena accused incumbents Mayor Lee Clancey Finance Commissioner Lyle Hanson and Parks Commissioner Dale Todd of using veterans, then replacing veteran members of the Veterans Memorial Commission with their choices. He urged reappointment for Larry Bender and Ralph Rauch, spoke at a news conference, and attended the City Council meeting with about 35 veterans and several challenger candidates in attendance.
