76 percent of Wallowa
County registered voters
turned out to express a collec-
tive mind on candidates and
measures in Tuesday’s general
election. Locally, Mary Grote
easily defeated incumbent
Bill Reynolds in the contro-
versial district attorney race.
Incumbent County Commis-
sioner Pat Wortman received
2,120 votes to retain his seats.
Most people in the county ob-
viously hate the idea of being
required by law to wear seat
belts, nixing Measure 9 by a
two to one margin, however
the safety belt law was ap-
proved by the state as a whole.

Volunteers are needed
for the local in-school read-
ing program conducted by
Building Healthy Families.
The long-standing pro-
gram evolved from the Start
Making A Reader Today
(SMART) program intended
to promote reading among
children.
Since Building Healthy
Families works closely with
the teachers in each of the
county’s districts, the pro-
gram and volunteer require-
ments vary. This year the
program is focusing on the
kindergarten level. Volun-
teers are asked to commit to
less than one hour a week.
Interested volunteers should
contact Building Healthy
Families at 541-426-9411.
