Our Military’s Voting Rights
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 […]
[BOISE] – Attorney General Raúl Labrador filed a petition today with the Idaho Supreme Court in a challenge to ballot initiative that has been deceptively and inaccurately promoted as the “Open Primary Initiative.” The petition for a writ of prohibition or writ of mandate addresses two flaws with the initiative.

Our form of government changed from a “Confederation of States” under the Articles of Confederation—which had a unicameral legislature and a very weak […]
Let the Games Begin
There was a time when I considered myself a good friend of Butch Otter’s. Our paths haven’t crossed recently, and I hope that will change soon. We shared a common friend who was close to both of us and who recently passed away. If Butch Otter was your friend, you were lucky. He is loyal—almost […]
Late last week, Idaho’s leftist press gloated about the State Supreme Court’s decision that the Attorney General’s office must rewrite the blanket primary / ranked choice voting ballot initiative. What they’re not telling you is that this actually marks a triumph for the AG and for all Idahoans who value the truth. The ballot initiative […]
