Cecil Andrus would be considered a Republican today. The dems have become commies. Both parties have moved left a great deal.

It seems as though Little could in no way be involved in any decisions or negotiations affecting agriculture and ranching, and Ahlquist could not act on any real estate or medical issues.

Raul Labrador’s family is from Puerto Rico, but we didn’t hear even one single word from him when the people there were starving and without clean water. Guess he thinks Trump’s paper towels were good enough…

As far as I’m concerned, that silence rules him out completely. Besides, we need to get these Republicans out of Idaho and Congress. Think back to Cecil Andrus and what a wonderful job he did for all of us !!!

Eagle Writer…this time the Ds went with the “next man up.” Thank goodness it didn’t work for them either.

TFB, you might be new to politics. It is not pandering for a Republican to run to the right during a primary, it is normal practice. The winner will move back toward the middle a notch to pick up Dems in the general election. We expect that.

Easterner, the Republican party used to be the “next man up” party, and that is why John McCain lost, and then Mitt lost. Going back it is why Bob Dole lost.

The Party did not make a mistake in 2016 with too many candidates, rather we paraded out our best, picked one, and won the election. That is a hand well played.

In Idaho it is the strength of our Party that brings up for governor the next man up (Little), a popular congressman (Labrador), and an energetic outsider (Ahlquist). All Republicans, all differently conservative, and a true choice for the voters.

This is a good, fun, and exciting election year for Idahoans.

Mr. Tommy A should run for office in UTAH. That is where he is from, that is where he spends his campaign money, that is where his daddy lives and runs his company from, and that is the land he knows….not Idaho.

I really do hope those Millennials organize, register and vote. If Idaho is trying to attract new, young people that is important.

I know who is going to win already.

Idaho Democrats are repeating the mistakes of 2016 National campaign. Try, and try again.
Balukoff is the same as Clinton- Run again and lose again.
Jordan is much like Sanders- The outside long-shot.

Idaho Republicans are also repeating the mistakes of the 2016 National campaign- too many candidates due to lack of party leadership.

How in the world the Idaho R party is so fractured as to have THREE candidates only represents how dysfunctional the party is currently– in their leadership and in the Legislature.

The R party (Idaho and national) needs to expel the TeaParty idiots.
Tea Partiers need to be their own party. That’s YOU Raul. Good luck!

The Dems need to move on to younger, new candidates.

Millennials are becoming the largest political demographic. OLD (white) men are not the answer for the future- when they win, it’s a dismal outlook. (Just ask Putin).

Too bad Ms. Jordan is from the nut-factory of North Idaho.
Note- she is the ONLY elected Democrat in North Idaho.
She is the refreshing one of the batch.

Ahlquist and Little’s pandering to the right is pathetic and rings hollow. No discussion of competent, effective leadership, just right wing baloney.
