Historic Idaho GOP caucus coming March 6 |
February 18, 2012 |
Boise, Idaho – At its winter meeting, the Idaho
Republican State Central Committee, the
governing body of the Idaho GOP, met in Boise,
Idaho and reaffirmed its support of a change to
State Party Rules that will move Idaho’s
presidential candidate selection to Super
Tuesday and conduct the nominating process
through a county by county caucus system. Idaho
will send 32 voting delegates to the 2012
Republican National Convention in Tampa, which
will be more delegates than Iowa, New Hampshire
and Nevada.
The Boundary County Republicans will hold their
nomination process at Bonners Ferry High School
on Tuesday, March 6th at 6:00 pm, most likely in
the cafeteria/common room.
Only registered Republicans will be able to vote
at the Caucus. The doors will open at 5 p.m. for
those who need to register to vote as well as
those who just need to complete the affiliation
form.
Once the voting starts at 6 p.m. t
e doors will be closed to anyone not in
attendance or in line at that time. Certified
registrars will be at the caucus to register
voters and you must bring photo ID or sign an
affidavit to register to vote in Idaho. Any
Republican can also complete the affiliation
form prior to the caucus at the county clerk’s
office. For more details on voter registration

“The Boundary County Republican Party is excited
for the opportunity to host this
first-of-its-kind Republican Presidential Caucus
in Idaho, and we invite all Republicans who
reside in our county to participate in this
historic event,” said Chairman Donna Capurso.
“It is truly an honor for the Boundary County
Republicans to have a say on who our 2012
Presidential nominee will be, and to which
candidate Idaho will send its 32 delegates for
support at the 2012 Republican National
Convention. I believe that this Presidential
election will be the most important one ever.”
