2016

Den Hartog's campaign website highlighted the following issues:

“

Education

  • Excerpt: "I believe that there are three major components of a successful educational system: local control, balanced allocation of resources, and school choice."

Economy

  • Excerpt: "Approximately 150,000 small businesses make up the Idaho economy, and I firmly believe our goal should be to engage in business-friendly practices in order to grow this vital sector in our State’s economy."

Rights

  • Excerpt: "One of the undeniable rights of the American people is the right to keep and bear arms as established in the Second Amendment."

Right-to-life

  • Excerpt: "I have worked to advance and protect the basic right-to-life of pre-born children. It is our duty to protect the most vulnerable among us."

Health care

  • Excerpt: "We are witnessing first-hand that government intrusion into the healthcare system does not solve problems, but has an adverse impact on the availability of health care and the availability and compensation of doctors. We need to empower people to take charge of their own health, and we need to empower our physicians and healthcare providers to enact solutions that improve patient care."[10]

Scorecards

See also: State legislative scorecards and State legislative scorecards in Idaho

A scorecard evaluates a legislator’s voting record. Its purpose is to inform voters about the legislator’s political positions. Because scorecards have varying purposes and methodologies, each report should be considered on its own merits. For example, an advocacy group’s scorecard may assess a legislator’s voting record on one issue while a state newspaper’s scorecard may evaluate the voting record in its entirety.

Ballotpedia is in the process of developing an encyclopedic list of published scorecards. Some states have a limited number of available scorecards or scorecards produced only by select groups. It is Ballotpedia’s goal to incorporate all available scorecards regardless of ideology or number.

Click here for an overview of legislative scorecards in all 50 states.  To contribute to the list of Idaho scorecards, email suggestions to editor@ballotpedia.org.
