Facts about Ranked Choice Voting & Open Primaries
Ranked Choice Voting is a radical, confusing and chaotic voting system. One example given for Bonneville county is turning a ballot with about 20 bubbles into a ballot of possibly 500 bubbles, and if you don't rank ALL those choices, your vote may be invalid!
This is a corrupt system pushed by the progressive left. Sadly some Republicans have even been duped into going along with this deceptive, rigged system.

“CANDIDATES COULD LIST ANY AFFILIATION ON THE BALLOT, BUT WOULD NOT REPRESENT POLITICAL PARTIES, AND NEED NOT BE ASSOCIATED WITH THE PARTY THEY NAME.”
"What??!! Candidates can say they are with one party when they are actually philosophically with a different party. That is the law they want you to approve. Democrats could put an “R” for Republican next to their name on the ballot ... They want you to approve a law that would make it legal to lie about party affiliation. Not a joke."
"The people of Idaho’s elected representatives enacted a statutory defense of “one person, one vote.”
"A consistent theme in the Left’s push for power has been their attempts to remake election processes. No-fault absentee voting. “Nonpartisan” redistricting commissions. Drop boxes. Noncitizen voting. Now, their latest push for Ranked Choice Voting."
"The ballot initiative that Reclaim Idaho is collecting signatures for are complex strategies that essentially sideline political parties from the primary process, enabling Democrats, Independents, and even Socialists to determine your nominee for the general election."
As of September 12, 2024, the BCRCC formally adopted the position to oppose Ranked Choice Voting. We encourage residents of Bonneville County to join us in defeating Proposition #1.
