Understanding how the Electoral College impacts our elections is essential for every voter. The difference between the Electoral College and the popular vote has sparked debate for decades, particularly during elections where the two results differ. Such splits occurred in 2016, 2000, 1888, and 1876. These instances have fueled questions about fairness, representation, and the […]
Idaho stands as a proud bastion of conservatism, its politics reflecting the convictions of a state deeply rooted in Republican values. Yet, recent mischaracterizations of the Idaho Republican Party as extremists by prominent media outlets and opinion writers aim to sow discord and attempt to alienate citizens at a time when unity and collective purpose […]
The Idaho Republican Party has much to be grateful for this Thanksgiving. Let’s reflect on the recent election that brought us significant victories. This election was one to celebrate, highlighting our gratitude for the grassroots efforts and outcomes that have positively impacted our state and our nation. We are thankful for the hard work that […]
In the heart of Idaho, the call to action is resounding louder than ever as we stand at one of the most pivotal electoral crossroads of our time. Across our country, and particularly within our great state, the importance of getting involved in this election cannot be overstated. The stakes are high, and the impact […]
In a surprising development in the presidential eligibility saga, Shiva Ayyadurai, an accomplished candidate with a strong academic and professional background, is back in the spotlight. Born in India and raised in New Jersey, Ayyadurai appears on the Idaho presidential ballot despite being removed from New Jersey’s. This situation has ignited debate over the constitutional […]
In Tuesday’s Vice Presidential debate, Republican Senator JD Vance dominated Democrat Governor Tim Walz, showcasing why the Trump-Vance ticket is the best choice for Idaho and the nation. Vance’s confident and articulate delivery of his policies, coupled with his commitment to traditional American values, set him apart from the visibly nervous and at times, discombobulated Walz. Throughout […]
Another week, another set of untruthful statements from Reclaim Idaho and its allies about Proposition 1. In recent mailers and text messages, they claimed that Prop 1 will “restore Idaho’s voting traditions” — an outrageous lie. Prop 1 does not restore anything; rather, it creates a brand new system with a Top-Four Jungle Primary and […]
I’m incredibly disappointed by the recent vandalism of our signs opposing Proposition 1. Over a dozen signs in Meridian and Eagle were defaced, with some even marked with swastikas. These illegal actions don’t just violate the law — they undermine the democratic process, which relies on voters hearing from all sides before making informed decisions. […]
On Tuesday night, the American people were once again reminded that Donald Trump is not only fighting the Democrats but an entrenched system that is using lies and lawfare to stand in the way of making America great again. As Republicans, we are all too familiar with how our candidates are forced to debate not […]
Six years ago, Reclaim Idaho promised the people of Idaho that Medicaid Expansion would only cost around $400 million a year and that, since it was mostly covered by the federal government, it would be practically free. Today, taxpayers are shelling out many times that amount, and with the national debt now over $35 trillion, […]
In Idaho, we love our veterans. The men and women who wear our country’s uniforms, who sacrifice their time, energy, and even their lives to defend our way of life deserve all the gratitude we can give them and more. Republicans have always done their best to honor and support those who have served. We […]
This week, presumptive Democratic presidential nominee Kamala Harris chose Minnesota Governor Tim Walz as her running mate. This decision offers a stark contrast between the country we love and what the Democrats have planned. Minnesota under Governor Walz is a vision of the dystopian future a Harris/Walz administration would impose on America. Under Walz, Minnesota […]
