John McGee Wins Controversial Caldwell Runoff Years After Sexually Harassing Staffer

John McGee for Caldwell City Council - Facebook

Former Idaho state legislator John McGee has won a heated runoff election for Caldwell City Council seat 6. McGee was unceremoniously ousted from his position as an Idaho lawmaker after sexually harassing a legislative staff member. He served 39 days in jail for disturbing the peace in connection to the accusation. Idaho Matters talks to College of Idaho professor Jasper LiCalzi and Boise State Public Radio reporter Heath Druzin about the election results, and what they mean for Caldwell.
