Idaho GOP Platform Ratings Just Released
All Lawmakers Graded on Alignment with the Republican Party Platform of Idaho
BOISE, Idaho – The just launched Idaho State GOP Platform Rating system will hold every Republican lawmaker accountable to the Republican Party of Idaho and its party platform which lawmakers have pledged their allegiance. This independent and objective accountability system is expected to play a major role in Idaho politics and will grade each lawmaker based upon their voting alignment with the 19 articles of the party platform, as adopted on July 16, 2022 in Twin Falls.
The system reveals the percentage of time each lawmaker abides by the GOP platform during each legislative session, and in cases where a lawmaker casts a vote in violation of the platform, the system provides a citation to the exact article and section violated. Additionally, the system contains an advanced categorization system which pinpoints the articles the lawmaker most often violates, as well as the percentage of time the violations occur.
The system was launched in response to cases of Democratic politicians fraudulently representing themselves as Republicans to win election in GOP-controlled districts. While this grading system marks the first of its kind, the system is constructed off the web architecture and policy analyses of the Institute for Legislative Analysis – a national data and policy hub that serves Republican-affiliated entities.
“We are honored the Republicans of Idaho have selected our platform for the launch of their groundbreaking new initiative,” said Ryan McGowan, CEO of the Institute for Legislative Analysis. “Idaho has been plagued by practices of fraudulent party identification by lawmakers and we look forward to watching this new tool be put to use to ensure Republican districts are once again represented by real Republicans.”

Rinos, Elephants, or Donkeys – just three different species of Swamp Crocodiles, disguised as Rinos, Elepants, and Donkeys. And, therefore, just different degrees of liberal.

This is really great news. HOPEFULLY, you will include violations of the Preamble to the Platform. Legislators who claim to be Republican should show adherence to our beliefs as stated within the Preamble. Let’s just pray this info will open the eyes and minds of Idaho Voters.
I am just wondering if senators or representatives who vote as their constituents inform them to vote instead of the party line and are then considered Rinos? Is that not a real problem for a Representative type
of government? It sounds like fascism to me.
