IMPORTANT GOP House Primary Races: And How You Can Help (Mountain West)

Posted on 05/09/2014 8:39:19 PM PDT by campaignPete R-CT

THIS IS FOR THE MOUNTAIN WEST (Rest of the country is in separate threads and Pacific Coast coming later, see links below)

There are numerous important House Primary Races! And places where we can WIN! PLEASE contribute! And if you can't contribute money ... the least we can do is go to their pages and give them a "like" or a tweet. All of these candidates are involved in primaries that are close (or could be close) against generally more moderate or liberal Republicans. All of these districts are winnable in November.

Nevada:
NIGER INNIS, NEVADA-4, June 10th .... winner faces DEM Horsford

NIGER INNIS -- FACEBOOK -- TWITTER -- DONATE

"We cannot have a meaningful discussion about the legalization of millions of immigrants here illegally until we secure the border and that includes tightening oversight on those visiting on visas."


IDAHO:
BRYAN SMITH, IOWA-3, MAY 20th ... opposing incumbent GOP Mike Simpson


Bryan Smith -- FACEBOOK -- TWITTER -- DONATE

Endorsed by: Club for Growth PAC, FreedomWorks PAC, Citizens United, National Association for Gun Rights, Senate Conservatives Fund

Smith says: "Mike Simpson was one of three Republicans who voted in favor of ACORN funding. Simpson has repeatedly voted to raise taxes including voting with liberal Democrats in 2010 against cutting one hundred billion dollars from the federal budget."


Texas:
Francisco "Quico" Canseco, TEX-23, he is in the May 27 run-off


QUICO CANSECO -- FACEBOOK -- TWITTER -- DONATE

Has endorsement of Texas Right to Life. Former congressman has best shot to win the seat back.

"I look forward to being on the campaign trail the next 12 weeks as I seek to secure the Republican nomination. Texans deserve the best nominee to stand up against government waste and Gallego's Obamacare and I believe I am the best candidate for that."


Montana:
MATT ROSENDALE, MONTANA-at large, June 3rd .... either Rosendale or Stapleton needs to defeat Republican Zinke.


MATT ROSENDALE -- FACEBOOK -- TWITTER -- DONATE

"Montana represents the best of what we as a family believe in: God, liberty and a fundamental right to living our lives without the pressing hand of an intrusive government."

Conservatives are alarmed that moderate Zinke could win the primary. Read article here.

MOUNTAIN WEST
This will be updated periodically. The rest of country ... threads are posted with links see below in this thread.

Again, the criteria: the candidate must have a legit shot in NOV in their district and they are also in a tough primary fight against a candidate with lesser conservative appeal (or even a liberal).

Donate today. If broke, send $14 for victory in ‘14.

Does Rosendale’s gun have one of those evil forward leaning pistol grips?

I think so. Montana gets away with so much.

I neglected to say that Corey Stapleton is also a good candidate in the Montana race ... for some reason I think Rosendale has the better shot at winning on June 3rd.

Glendive sure isn’t in real Montana.

Who is the candidate to back in that race?

I need to look at CO-4 and OK-5. They were on my list, but overlooked ‘em.

We’re rootin’ for Niger Innis here in NV. Horsford is a horses ass and needs to be gone come Nov. Unfortunately, where we are, we don’t get to vote for Innis.

I cant get excited about any on them. Zinke is a Montana boy, former SEAL, so I suspect he has a very good chance in the primary. He's just not conservative enough for me.. the other candidate's will split the conservative vote..Rove’s strategy

Cresent Hardy, who is running in the primary against Niger Innis in Nevada, has some major business bankruptcy issues that are going to be coming out. I’m not sure why guys like that with baggage feel compelled to be spoilers, especially when they don’t have a bat’s chance n hell of beating the Dem in the general.

I looked at OK-5. Appears as tho Patrice Douglas could face a tough race from Jolley on who will be the next congress-critter.

The race doesn’t look interesting to Freepers who wanna defeat RINOs.

Salvation ... big primary in WA-4. Janea is struggling to raise money. Is Didier much preferred over Newhouse? Any thoughts? All 3 claim to be strong conservatives, pro-life.

i found a good one. IN california #7 primary

pro-life Emken (ran against Feinstein) is facing Republican Doug Ose, former congressman. Ose had an excellent rating from NARAL.

this seat is winnable in NOV
