Democratic challenger Keith Allred, in his opening statement, said his goal is to “advance our priorities, not the priorities of political parties and special interests.” As for those priorities, he said, “Two rise above the rest - first keep the tax burden on Idaho families low, second provide a great education for every Idaho school kid.
