As the May primary in Kootenai County approaches, let’s talk about something exciting: what it really means to be a North Idaho Republican. You might be surprised to find that, like the rugged beauty of our great state, the heart of our political beliefs is rooted in principles you already live by every day.

North Idaho Republicans believe freedom rings true in North Idaho, where we value our open spaces and personal freedoms deeply. President Ronald Reagan famously championed minimal government interference, and that’s a song that resonates well with our community. Whether you’re fishing in quiet solitude or building a business from the ground up, being a Republican might just mean you prefer steering your own ship rather than having someone else plot your course.
