"Only Republicans should choose Republican nominees." Exactly. I support that.
Regarding funding, as a small donor I might send $50 each to the State GOP and AdaGOP. But under the rules it seems the AdaGOP may have to send my $50 to the state as well. The state then gets $100 of my money and my county gets zero. This has the "child" paying the way for the parent who will not do their own fundraising. My simple solution is to not send any money to either.
I have yet to form a strong opinion on this issue; in fact I don't think I understand it well enough to speak out. I need to continue talking with people on both sides to really flesh out my thoughts.
Another idea would be to base the number of eligible county delegates on the proportion of paid dues. 100% dues paid then 100% of that county's eligible delegates attend the state convention. 50% dues paid then the number of eligible delegates are cut in half. :)
Time to take the reins back from the loonie tunes!

I would love to be wrong, but I don't know how else it would work.
Love the sound of all this! Keep going to the Moon and Beyond.
Great as always Mark.
Keep up the good work

Dorothy Moon will be the best person to lead the Idaho GOP to greatness- I am thrilled and honored to work with her!
