As political campaigns evolve and mature, as the factions become hardened and the number of people who will determine the election becomes a smaller fraction of the electorate—who could possibly be in the middle or undecided at this point in time in our country(?)—the words of my mother who ran many political Statewide election campaigns […]
They told us that Trump’s 2016 win was not legitimate and the result of Russian interference. Turns out that the Russia conspiracy was invented by the Hillary Clinton campaign. They told us COVID came from a wet market and masks would stop transmission and the vaccine was safe and effective and we needed to stay […]
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 […]
Introduction Ranked-choice voting (RCV) has been promoted as a way to improve elections by ensuring majority support, reducing polarization, and giving voters more choice. However, despite these intended benefits, RCV has garnered significant criticism, particularly from those who believe it complicates the electoral process, undermines traditional party systems, and opens the door to manipulation by […]
The upcoming General Election including the Presidential and Congressional Elections are not just about personalities and policies. It is more about the process of governance as we pass the political torch onto the next generations. Republicans of all stripes have shown an allegiance to our Constitution, to our Courts—no matter how much they have been […]
“Never trust a poll you didn’t pay for.” Political axiom. In the run-up to the November election we are bombarded by polls allegedly telling us how the candidates are doing. Results often vary widely which makes it confusing and difficult to understand the true situation. If you know how polls are done and what the […]
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 […]
The first question that comes to mind when I listen to Kamala talk is are the American people that gullible? Well this question will be answered on November 5th as we go to the polls to elect our next president of the United States. Why have so many been sucked in by Kamala’s Hope 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. […]
The Kootenai County Republican Central Committee (KCRCC) held a special meeting on Tuesday to review the candidates for the November election and then to vote by secret ballot on which candidates the KCRCC would recommend. Many organizations, groups and associations endorse candidates for office. These groups typically are composed of individuals who are bound together […]
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 […]
“Much of the social history of the Western world over the past three decades has involved replacing what worked with what sounded good.” ~ Thomas Sowell Ranked Choice Voting will be on the ballot in November as Proposition 1, but what is RCV and what will it do to Idaho and you? Prop 1 eliminates […]
