IDAHO Treasure Valley Area Voter Guide

Endorsed by
The Idaho Pastors’ Legislative Advisory Council, VAC Action, & ConservativesOf: America

Legend:

* Means: More or most conservative than the alternatives

+ Means: Marginally more Conservative or less Liberal / Progressive than the alternatives

If you are running for office and wish to be listed on this voter guide, you will need to be vetted by The Pastors’ Legislative Advisory Council (PLACE) in conjunction with ConservativesOf: America. If you want to find out more about PLACE make sure you are on the VAC (www.VAC.org/Idaho) or the ConservativesOf: America Mailing list (conservativesof.com/get-involved/).

Notes:
These Candidates have been evaluated by their legislative history where available and by questionnaires and personal interaction with ConservativesOf: representatives and pastors in Treasure Valley.

While we realize that in some cases certain candidates are not ideal by any stretch of the imagination, we most often recommend that voters vote for the least problematic candidate as opposed to abstaining and potentially defaulting the election to the more liberal candidate(s) (except in the case of uncontested races with bad candidates).

This is a preliminary listing and may be modified or added to in the weeks to come should more information about candidates come to light. Please refer back to this page once voting begins on Oct 23, 2023.

Important Note

While you need to vote at a minimum, it is not enough to merely vote for a candidate. The real battle is in GETTING OUT THE VOTE on a broader scale. Progressives mobilize their voter base utilizing paid union workers – the teacher’s union, etc., WOKE ideologues, and misguided constituents. We cannot assume we’ll win elections by taking a passive approach or limiting our participation to voting alone.

The Pastors’ Legislative Advisory Council (PLACE), the Values Advocacy Council Action, and ConservativesOf: City, County, District, and State Chapters ask that your Constitutionally minded Biblically based Conservative churches, families, friends, and neighbors join with us either through their own church ministries 501c4 branches or through ConservativesOf: Campaign Teams and Action Groups to go door to door and help GET OUT THE VOTE for our Biblically-minded Conservative candidates and / or recommended candidates. This is a great experience for family members of all ages. Homes for door knocking are selected based on their registration, ensuring you’ll be contacting generally likeminded, friendly voters in your efforts. You’ll be joining other experienced campaigners and encouraging likeminded citizens in your communities to vote for candidates who align with our values as best reflected by candidates represented in our ConservativesOf: voter guide(s).

We also encourage you to host Candidate Meet & Greets and other events at your home while inviting your friends, family, and neighbors to attend, get involved, and GET OUT THE VOTE.

CANYON COUNTY
NAMPA
Mayor	No Race
Council Seat 2	* Troy Keith	Natalie Jangula, a conservative, is also running for this seat. But she is the incumbent in Seat 3 and wishes to move to Seat 2. However, we are supporting Troy Keith, a conservative, in this race due to the fact that if he's elected, Natalie Jangula will retain her position in Seat 3. We feel it is better to have 2 conservatives occupying both seats as opposed to risking one of those seats to an unknown appointment that can potentially default to a non-conservative.
