Please list below 3 key messages of your campaign. What are the main points you want voters to remember about your goals for your time in office?

Sarah Zabel (Independent)

As a country, we are facing serious problems, but we have overcome equally challenging problems before. We know how to solve our problems.

The federal government is burdening the economy with tariffs and excessive workforce controls. Reduce those burdens and we can make living more affordable.

We need to reform our laws and enforce them fairly and evenly.

What areas of public policy are you personally passionate about?

Sarah Zabel (Independent)

National debt, affordability, and foreign affairs.

What characteristics or principles are most important for an elected official?

Sarah Zabel (Independent)

True motivation to serve their constituents and the nation as a whole.

What do you perceive to be the United States’ greatest challenges as a nation over the next decade?

Sarah Zabel (Independent)

We are facing significant challenges with affordability, especially of health care. Going forward, the economic disruption posed by artificial intelligence and robotics will become increasingly significant.

Do you believe that two years is the right term length for representatives?

Sarah Zabel (Independent)

Yes. It ensures continuing accountability to the voters.

Do you believe that compromise is necessary or desirable for policymaking?

Sarah Zabel (Independent)

Yes. Our laws affect the whole nation. Congress can't just serve a single constituency.

The Constitution says that all bills for raising revenue must originate in the House. What role would this power play in your priorities if elected?

Sarah Zabel (Independent)

We need to reform our tax policies. Revising tax law will be a very high priority for me.

What is an accomplishment that you are proud of?

Sarah Zabel (Independent)

I researched and wrote a book about the science of depression. It opened my eyes about mental health and illness and was truly challenging.

What role should the United States government have in the development or use of artificial intelligence?

Sarah Zabel (Independent)

The U.S. government must ensure that people are held accountable for what they do. In the area of artificial intelligence, the government needs to ensure transparency, so that people know when they are interacting with AI rather than a person. They need to know when artifacts such as video or audio recordings are generated by AI. The learning path of AI must be documented. The government can ensure such transparency by establishing technical standards and legal accountability for their violation.

General election race ratings

See also: Race rating definitions and methods

Ballotpedia provides race ratings from four outlets: The Cook Political Report, Inside Elections, Sabato's Crystal Ball, and DDHQ/The Hill. Each race rating indicates if one party is perceived to have an advantage in the race and, if so, the degree of advantage:

• Safe and Solid ratings indicate that one party has a clear edge and the race is not competitive.
• Likely ratings indicate that one party has a clear edge, but an upset is possible.
• Lean ratings indicate that one party has a small edge, but the race is competitive.
• Toss-up ratings indicate that neither party has an advantage.

Race ratings are informed by a number of factors, including polling, candidate quality, and election result history in the race's district or state.

Post-filing deadline analysis

The following analysis covers all U.S. House districts up for election in Idaho in 2026. Information below was calculated on Feb. 27, 2026, and may differ from information shown in the table above due to candidate replacements and withdrawals after that time.

Ten candidates — four Democrats and six Republicans — ran for Idaho’s two U.S. House districts. That’s five candidates per district. There were three candidates per district in 2024, four in 2022, 3.5 in 2020, 6.5 in 2018, 4.5 in 2016, and five in 2014.

No districts were open in 2026, meaning all incumbents — both Republicans — ran for re-election. Between 2014 and 2024, the only time a district was open was in 2018. That year, one district was open.

Four primaries — two Democratic and two Republican — were contested in 2026. There was one contested primary each in 2024 and 2022. There were three contested primaries each in 2020, 2018, 2016, and 2014.

The same number of candidates ran in both districts — the 1st and the 2nd — in 2026. Five candidates ran in each district.

Both incumbents — Reps. Russ Fulcher (R-1st) and Michael K. Simpson (R-2nd) — faced a primary challenger in 2026. There was one incumbent in a contested primary in 2024, one in 2022, two in 2020, none in 2018, two in 2016, and two in 2014.

Candidates filed to run in the Republican and Democratic primaries in both districts, meaning no districts were guaranteed to either party.

Partisan Voter Index

See also: The Cook Political Report's Partisan Voter Index

Heading into the 2026 elections, based on results from the 2024 and 2020 presidential elections, the Cook Partisan Voter Index for this district is R+22.

This made Idaho's 1st the 21st most Republican district nationally.

2020 presidential election results

The table below shows what the vote in the 2024 presidential election was in this district. The presidential election data was compiled by The Downballot.
