Tim Fox and Jon Knokey are running on a strong public land and conservation platform. Yet, if they lose the primary, their outdoor policies will not move forward. Point being, in many states, the outcome is decided in the Primary Election. If you vote for hunting, fishing, and public access issues, get those candidates through the primaries.
