Fascinating. There are levies here that were decided by 20 votes, by 6, by FOUR VOTES.
Overall, 19 of the 26 supplemental levies on the ballot passed. Seven failed. Two of the four plant facilities levies passed; two failed.

What is the single most powerful thing you can do the day before an election besides get yourself ready?

Call a friend or five to remind them that tomorrow is the day!

Getting everyone to vote is the strategy. Send some texts to your loved ones today. #idpol

It’s November!

What does that mean?

That I’m already locked into the campaigns I will be working on in 2026.

Why?

Organizing is a year round activity, not something we do successfully 3 months before an election.

If you’re running for office in 2026, you should commit to the work now. #idpol

I’m a little worried about what kind of tariff war American consumers will be punished with if we lose the World Series. 🫠

Charlie Kirk perfected the ‘blame political violence on the left’ schtick, even when the perpetrators were undeniably right-wing. So naturally, his followers are using the same script in the wake of his murder.

PODER of Idaho, nonprofit supporting Latino and immigrant communities, say many affected are parents separated from their children and children struggling to understand why their family member is gone.
“This is going to affect children for the rest of their lives.”

Signatures are everywhere!
Hell yeah. We’re doing errands & getting signatures!

I got 14 yesterday at my community meeting. Off to get more as I run around the valley today.
What are my goals for today?

1. Mow the lawn for the last time in 2025.

2. Collect signatures for the Reproductive Freedom & Privacy Act so it can be on the ballot in 2026.

Yes! This!

Everyone get a clipboard and carry it with you everywhere!

Our Reproductive Freedom & Privacy depends on us. Our legislators are not going to fulfill the will of the people, so we have to do it ourselves via citizen ballot initiative!

All hands on deck!

Training every Tuesday! #idpol
Alicia inspired me! I picked up my copies of the petition to get signed today. I’m in Ada County & I’ll be packing it around with a pen!!
Need to sign the Reproductive Freedom & Act and live in Coeur d’Alene? I’m at Crown & Thistle for “Beer Choir” collecting tonight.

They tell me it doesn’t matter if you can’t sing. 😂
