| Collapse all
- Our freedoms in Idaho are being stolen, and I am ready to stand in the gap and fight for freedom for the people of Idaho.
- Taxes are too high because government is too big. We must cut the unnecessary programs and allow the citizens of Idaho to keep more of their hard-earned money.
- We need a new way of educating children. We need a system that is responsive to parents, and provides parents real choices; choices that are affordable and effective in the education of our young people.

Scorecards
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.
