LETTER TO THE EDITOR

Dear Caribou County Voters,

A mailer was recently circulated within Caribou County that claimed that “The Idaho Republican Party cannot endorse” one of our candidates for legislature in district 35. This was misleading. The mailing claims to be published by District 35 and paid for by the Bonneville County Republican Committee. This is not the first time something similar has happened. This was not authorized by District 35. 

Caribou County Republicans do not believe that it is correct for a county committee to “put their thumb on the scale” and choose which Republican candidate should win in the primary election. We support all Republicans and let you, the voter, make your own choices. However, we respect the right of Bonneville County to operate as it wishes within Bonneville County. Caribou County would not presume to be so bold as to overstep into another county, especially with no communication. 

This flyer does not speak for Caribou County, District 35 nor the Idaho Republican Party. We urge you vote in this primary election for the candidate that you see fit.

Sincerely,

The Caribou County Republican Central Committee
