Thank you for taking the time to write this. I have not been very involved in politics locally, but know I need to be. I enjoyed learning a bit about our past and how we arrived where we are.

This is a great article. I live in Cascade and am new (2019) Idaho. Unfortunately, like most Conservative refugees, I saw the Rs behind the names and assumed that this was a Red State. As I came down to Eagle/Boise for shopping, I saw the campaign signs, and I appreciated when the candidate advertised themselves as Conservative. I have been trying to light the fire of locals, but they are still very "quiet." Our GOP Central Committee is not helpful in spreading info to local conservatives. We just lost the only seated registered Republican on the McCall City Council. We have a lot of work to do in Valley County to engage conservative and independent voters.
