Just WOKE Morons...IMO.

[Rappini]

Maybe Montana could annex Idaho.

[Major Matt Mason]

The RINO scumbags are in most states, and usually in a leadership position. As my tagline states, it is a problem that must be dealt with.

[fwdude]

I couldn't agree more.

In many ways, RINO's are much worse than Democrats. At least with a Democrat, you know what you're getting all the time.

[Organic Panic]

Idaho had illegals and rapefugees forced on their cities. BUT... The feds gave them boatloads of ‘free’ money. That’s all it takes.

And here I thought the Idaho state government was solid conservative Republican.

Nope. Lots of Democrats that run with a (R) after their name. They misrepresent their positions to get elected, then perform like Democrats when the legislature is in session. Attempts to run real conservatives last primary season were subverted by Democrats registering Republican to vote for the left leaning candidate, then immediately re-registering as Democrats after the primary. It is beyond frustrating that there is no means to prevent subversion of the primary process.

My wife called me this morning. She was asked to send two officers over to the local school/polling location. As usual, the school district is running an election for an $8 million levy and trying desperately to ensure that only the teachers and staff in the district were aware of the election to skew the vote "for" the levy. Real low-life jackwagons in the district. I made a point to put it out on Facebook for all the locals to get off their backsides and vote today.

Im getting pissed about having to vote down the school bond every 6 months. they do it during the week and when they figure people will least realize there is a vote that day. Im in Boundary County Idaho.

Happening in Bannock County today. $8 million levy. My wife and I will be voting NO on the way to dinner after she finishes a 12 hour (7 AM to 7 PM) workday dispatching police/fire/EMS. That levy is assessed via property tax. I own homes in both Chubbuck and Pocatello, so I get hit twice and I have no children in the schools nor do my tenants in the other house.

I got 3 houses on 3 properties and can only claim residency on 1. Its the same crap every 6 months.....screw the property owners and make them pay for facilities that others get to use for free.

[Myrddin]

The house in Chubbuck is my primary residence. The house in Pocatello is a revenue producing rental. I collect enough rent to cover property taxes for both of my properties. That was the plan when I purchased the 2nd house. I can retire with certainty that I won't be dispossessed because of property taxes.

The 3 people working at my polling location were just informed YESTERDAY of the school levy election. The school district teachers and employees clearly wanted minimum participation to ensure that most of the votes came from teachers and district employees. Elections can be easily skewed here with some offices barely getting 800 votes in a general election. A quietly run school levy would be easy to skew if only the teachers and district employees were aware.
