From flying across the country for RNC meetings to logging onto social media and seeing people calling for my head—it can be quite the whirlwind! But I wouldn’t have it […]
Do you remember what it was like this time last summer? Not only were we still reeling from the assassination attempt on Donald Trump—the former and future President of the United States—but we were also staring down the barrel of a scheme to completely upend the way we conduct elections in Idaho.
