The Colorado Sun: A writer of Christian romances and a conservative Christian podcaster have been appointed to two seats on the seven-person Mesa County Public Library District Board of Trustees in spite of a sometimes rowdy, packed-house attempt Tuesday morning to keep them off the board.

The Republican commissioners refused to back off on their support of new members, Lisa Fry and Rosanne Croft, whose selection only came to light late last week. The news of appointments that are normally a rubber-stamped, little-noticed matter, caught fire over the weekend after a local online publication called The Revolutionist reported that the commissioners planned to fill the board seats with “right-wing ideologues.”
