Idaho GOP: Primary update
This post is dedicated to Dan of the County. The Rules Committee did approve a resolution Friday to open the primary.
This will be dated on the floor as soon as Gov. Otter finishes speaking. But no matter what the delegation decides today, the state central committee has final say. That committee likely won't meet to discuss it until January. The proposal is: "Article IX: Centeral Committee endorsement and Republican Party open primary election." It goes on to state that "All legal Idaho voters will be allowed to vote in an Idaho Republican Party ballot in that primary election." The current language approved at the 2006 convention, reads "Central Committee endorsement and Republican Party registration required to vote in a Repubican primary election."
