Campaign Statement I am running for Precinct Committee Person in Precinct 303 because I believe in serving my community and strengthening our local Republican Party. Guided by the values of faith, family, and freedom, I support limited government, individual liberty, fiscal responsibility, and respect for the Constitution. As a precinct committee person, I will prioritize two‑way communication, work alongside my neighbors, encourage grassroots involvement, and help elect Republicans through consistent organization, outreach, and showing up.

Office Sought Precinct Committeeman - Precinct 303
I have not previously served as a Precinct Committeeman, but I have been actively involved in helping Republicans win elections in Idaho through effective grassroots campaigning. Through this work, I’ve gained experience in voter outreach, organization, and building trust at the local level, which I believe are essential skills for serving effectively as a precinct representative.
Yes. I strongly believe that informed voters are essential to a healthy democracy. I will encourage local candidates to participate in voter information efforts and face‑to‑face forums so voters have the opportunity to hear directly from candidates, ask questions, and make well‑informed decisions based on clear and open dialogue.
I believe the most important role of an elected official is to represent their local constituents through effective listening and two‑way communication. Strong qualifications and practical skills, such as budgeting, problem‑solving, and the ability to engage in respectful dialogue, are critical. While state and national parties provide valuable guidance, candidates should ultimately prioritize the needs and values of their local community. That is why the Precinct Committee position matters so much, as it ensures neighbors are represented in shaping party policy.
I am the best candidate to represent my Rathdrum neighborhood because I am committed to serving my neighbors through open, two‑way communication, encouraging grassroots involvement, and helping elect Republicans. I value integrity, approachability, and responsibility, and I support limited government, individual liberty, fiscal responsibility, and respect for the Constitution. My goal is to be a reliable and trusted point of contact for voters in my precinct.
