Raul Labrador Files For Re-election

Congressman Raúl Labrador officially declared his candidacy for re-election for Idaho's First Congressional District today. "It has been a great honor to represent the people of Idaho's First Congressional District in the U.S. House of Representatives, and I am proud to file my declaration of candidacy to continue to serve them in Washington," Labrador said, in a prepared statement sent by his campaign staff. "I have kept my promises to my constituents-- to boldly stand for our values of limited government, fiscal responsibility and individual liberty-- and will continue to do so if re-elected." Labrador is completing his first term as a member of the U.S. House of Representatives/Coeur d'Alene Press. More here.

Question: With one term under his belt and no Republican opponents in sight, is Congressman Raul Labrador virtually unbeatable for re-election?
