Please vote Principle over Party in the November 5 General Election. For example, if you are a Republican, consider casting your vote for a Constitutional Party or Independent candidate if he or she is more principled than the Republican opposition.
Having an “R” after one’s name does not guarantee a conservative or principled approach! In Idaho, especially, many “R” Republican legislators often are philosophically closer to and vote with Democrats; but these less-principled people know they must be an “R” to win elections so they claim Republican affiliation.
VOTERS: Be discerning. Be analytical. Be informed.
Interesting that you feel that a candidate has few or no principles unless they agree with you. Do you know no Democrats with principles? You must not get out much.
LOL! This from someone who dares to preach from his leftist swamp morality. The Democrats I know are guilt-ridden defenders of welfare rats.
So you vote for a Constitutional or Independent against a Republican and the Democrat for that seat gets elected. Open your eyes to what the result is. That is why we have a closed Primary.
Hello I do have a candidate website

Idaho house 16a
Chandler, I read through your website and, I must say, we agree on many points. However, I cannot see eye to eye with you on your stance regarding legalizing cannabis…don’t ask me how or why I’ve come to take the stance I do, but know this; I believe it is wrong. Sorry, not sorry.
Maybe making a distinction between ending the war on cannabis for legitimate medical therapies and cannabis just for getting high would clarify his stance. The pot-head waste of a life is the perfect poster child for keeping it illegal. It is hard to convince someone with a medical condition, maybe life threatening, that the cannabis they are using to treat their disease is somehow illegitimate and needs to be illegal.
James Petzke is the incumbent in District 21.
Thank You, Good job.
Anthony Porto (Democrat) is actually my challenger for District 11-A House (Kent Marmon).
Camille Blaylock’s opponent for District 11 Senate is Toni Ferro.
