I’m running for Idaho Attorney General because this is one of the most important contests on Idaho’s ballot this election cycle. Idahoans deserve an Attorney General who does the job with professionalism, integrity, and respect for the rule of law. With your help, I will be that Attorney General.
We’re closing in on $100,000 raised. Why does $100,000 matter? Because in a state like Idaho, it sends an unmistakable signal — to voters, to the press, to every political observer watching this race — that this campaign is real, it is viable, and it is a fight we can win.
Not in a position to donate right now? Over the next six months, we’ll be recruiting volunteers in every corner of Idaho, building grassroots support statewide, and making our case that Idaho deserves an Attorney General who will focus on the facts and the law and leave politics at the door.
If you want to be a part of that — we’d love to have you. This is a statewide race worth running. I believe it. I hope you do too.

A new statewide poll is out, and it tells us something I've believed since the day we started: when Idahoans hear what this campaign is about, they're with us.
On Tuesday, the Bullfinch Group released a survey of Idaho voters. The headline is simple: only 30% of respondents think Risch is doing a good job in the Senate. After 18 years in Washington, and decades in Idaho politics before that, fewer than one in three Idahoans can say he's earned another term. That's what happens when an elected official stops listening to the people he works for.
Here's where the opportunity sits. Right now, before most voters know who I am, Risch leads the initial three-way matchup, which is exactly what you'd expect for someone who's been on Idaho ballots for five decades.
But if you look a little bit closer, more than a quarter of voters, 26%, are still undecided and up for grabs. I already outpace Democrat David Roth, who sits at 15% in his third federal campaign to my first. This is a two-way race for the seat. And head-to-head against Risch, before anyone has told voters a thing about me, I'm already within four points, 40% to 36%. Idahoans are ready for an alternative. We just have to make sure they meet one.
Then comes the part that should make every one of us hopeful. The poll told respondents the basics about both of us, our backgrounds, where we stand, and with that context the race flips. I take an 11-point lead in the three-way, 39% to 28%, with Roth at 9%. Head-to-head against Risch, that lead grows to 20 points, 51% to 31%! When voters have the full picture, they choose us, and it isn't close.
What Idahoans told us they care about: 47% of Idahoans say their personal finances have gotten worse over the past year. Government accountability ranked second, with one in five Idahoans naming corruption, government overreach, or a lack of checks and balances as a top concern. They're asking for change, and they're right to.
There was one more thing voters were clear about. 75% said they want a senator willing to work with both sides, and just 13% saw that as a bad thing. That's exactly the case for an independent. When neither party holds an outright majority, both sides have to come to the table and work with independents to get anything done. That's how we break the two parties’ grip on Congress and how we renew Congress for the next 250 years.
Word of the poll is spreading online and getting picked up by traditional outlets too, which means more Idahoans are hearing our message without us spending a dime to reach them.
This week the Lewiston Tribune ran an opinion piece arguing that our state is turning from a flyover state into a real battleground, with a head-to-head race against Risch that would command national attention and force serious money in to prop up an 83-year-old incumbent who skips the debates and town halls his constituents deserve.
I was in New York recently with Independent Veterans of America. There are five other independent veterans running for Senate this year, all working toward the same goal: a bloc of independents big enough that Washington has to listen.
Jim Risch's single biggest source of campaign cash is from one zip code on the Upper East Side of Manhattan, where he's raised around $350,000. His second biggest is in Los Angeles. I'll let you decide who a senator funded by Manhattan and LA is really working for.
Friend,
I want to tell you something about Russ Fulcher that his campaign ads never mention.
He's a licensed commercial real estate broker. Right now. While serving in Congress.
That's not my opposition research talking. That's his own firm's website. Rallens Realty Consultants, Boise, Idaho. Buying, selling, leasing, and getting government approvals for development properties. Since 2006.
Now think about what housing costs in this district.
To afford a basic two-bedroom rental in ID-01, you need to earn $29.61 an hour. The average renter here makes $12.19. Idaho's minimum wage is still $7.25, and when Congress voted to raise it, Russ Fulcher voted no.
So here's the picture. Working families getting priced out of towns their grandparents built. A congressman with a real estate license, a brokerage, and a no vote on your paycheck.
He profits from the market.
You're drowning in it.
And he gets to vote on both.
I'm not a broker. I'm not a landlord. I'm a mom from Eagle who has spent three campaigns driving every corner of this district listening to people who can't afford to live where they work.
I don't take corporate PAC money. Not a dime. This campaign runs on Idahoans chipping in what they can.
If you think Idaho deserves a representative without a side business in the housing market, pitch in.

Becky Sundin Mitchell for Superintendent of Public Education
Over the past month, I've had the privilege of traveling across Idaho, meeting with parents, educators, school board members, students, and community members. Whether I was in a large city or a rural town, one message came through clearly: Idahoans care deeply about their public schools and want them to succeed.
Across the state, people are concerned about the new $50 million "tax credit" voucher program that sends public dollars to private education without meaningful public accountability. Idaho taxpayers deserve to know how their money is being spent and whether it is improving educational outcomes. Public schools are held to high standards because they serve every child. When public funds leave the system, Idaho families deserve the same transparency and accountability.
I'm also hearing concerns about aging school buildings that need repairs, districts struggling to recruit and retain outstanding teachers and support staff, and special education programs that remain underfunded despite serving some of our students with the greatest needs.
Our current administration has had four years to address funding concerns and yet we are 51st in the nation.
For conservatives, liberals, independents, and everyone in between, the math is the same. When the state shifts funding priorities away from public schools, local districts are left with difficult choices. Communities often face higher property taxes to maintain essential services, or schools are forced to reduce opportunities for students. Athletics, music, arts, career and technical education, extracurricular activities, and other programs that make schools the heart of our communities can all be put at risk.
At the same time, we're asking educators to do more with less. Idaho cannot expect to attract and keep exceptional teachers while failing to invest in the profession. As I know all too well, every teacher who leaves represents lost experience, disrupted learning, and another challenge for students and families. Education is not simply another budget item. It is one of the smartest investments we can make in Idaho's future workforce, economy, and communities.
As I continue traveling throughout our state, I remain encouraged by the people I meet every day. Idahoans want practical solutions, responsible stewardship of taxpayer dollars, and schools that prepare every student for success. They want leaders who listen before they lead.
Thank you for welcoming me into your communities and for sharing your stories. If you'd like to support our campaign, host a community conversation, volunteer, or help us continue visiting every corner of Idaho, please contact my team at becky4idaho@gmail.com.
I am still hoping to reach these counties specifically: Cassia, Minidoka, Lincoln, Jerome,
Gooding, Camas, Fremont, Jefferson, Caribou, Franklin, Power, Oneida, Valley, Boise,
Owyhee, and Adams.

Terri Pickens for Governor
If you grab a cat by the tail and hang on tight, you learn things you can’t learn any other way.
Mark Twain said that and I suspect it was right after he had a premonition of Brad Little running for a third term as governor. Who’s got the cat by the tail? Is it the governor running after zero-funding a brutal wildfire season, while trying to sneak nuclear waste into Idaho, after selling public lands used by a ranch family to his Hollywood billionaire donors?
Or is it the scratched up Idahoans who once thought Mr. Little was on our side?
While Mr. Little side-steps and blusters and gaslights, I am having an amazing experience just telling the truth. My campaign to return Idaho to regular folks is going well–VERY WELL!
This month, we’ll pass 2,000 separate contributions from well over 1,000 folks. I’ve met tons of tireless volunteers. So many people are following my campaign, writing letters and emails, talking to neighbors. We’re telling Mr. Little and his powerful allies the same thing: That’s our freedom you’ve been taking and we intend to take it back.
I recall one stop in Boise County early this year that captures the mood. Folks there were glad to meet me because I am holding the county officials accountable for failing to investigate a Boise County Commissioner’s role in a knife attack on a mom and her teenage kids on a Payette River whitewater rafting day-trip. I took the fight off the beach and into the courtroom. That’s the fearless commitment to justice and transparency that every Idahoan can expect when I am governor.
And, I’ve been pleased with news coverage. I was on KTVB-TV last week holding Brad Little accountable because he’s “... gaslighting Idahoans because his math doesn’t math.” When I am governor, I am not going to let the federal government use our beautiful state as the nation’s nuclear waste dumpsite–which is a shady deal that Brad Little is trying to sneak past us.
It's been a long campaign–one that I have LOVED because I have so many new friends. With 70-some days until Election Day, the wind at my back is turning into a hurricane for Mr. Little. Please join me and help get the word out. Thanks so much for your vote and your support.

Dottie Owens for County Coroner
Dotti has more than 20 years of experience in medicolegal death investigation, including eight years serving as our elected Ada County Coroner. During that time, she conducted thousands of death investigations, strengthened partnerships with law enforcement, fire departments, EMS, prosecutors, and public health professionals, and helped the office achieve national accreditation.
And this race matters beyond Ada County. Our Coroner’s Office serves as an important regional forensic resource for communities across Idaho that don’t have access to the same facilities, specialized staff, or forensic pathologists. Strong, experienced leadership here has an impact across our entire state.
Dotti knows this work, she knows the responsibility that comes with it, and she understands that every case involves a family that deserves professionalism, compassion, and answers.

Have you met the Easleys?
Karlie and Amanda are running to unseat the Senate and House Majority Leaders...
You know, the ones that pushed through the School Voucher Program?
The current majority leadership representing District 22 holds influential positions as the sponsor and co-sponsor of Idaho’s school voucher legislation. Occupying key Senate and House Majority leadership roles, these representatives benefit from significant financial backing that supports a specific policy agenda focused on private school subsidies.
This race presents a clear contrast for our community. While the current leadership continues to push for vouchers that redirect public funds and into private institutions, Amanda and Karlie Easley are focused on a different priority: strengthening our public schools and serving everyday families. We believe that District 22 deserves representation that prioritizes the local classrooms and healthcare services that form the backbone of our district.
The rising tide of extremism within our government does more than divide—it prevents us from building a thriving Idaho. Our goal is to steer state leadership back to its fundamental duty: providing effective results for every citizen. We seek an organized governance model that puts local schools, health services, and smart spending ahead of partisan theater. Let's move past the division and serve the people.
Karlie Easley is a hospice nurse, a mother, and a fourth-generation Idahoan running to bring common-sense leadership back to the statehouse. After years of caring for Treasure Valley families in both emergency and hospice settings, she knows firsthand the challenges Idahoans face. Karlie is focused on what matters—strong schools, reliable infrastructure, and accessible healthcare—and ensuring government works for everyone.
Amanda Easley is a small business owner with a passion for solving real-world problems. Raised by a Vietnam veteran and retired police officer and a public school teacher, Amanda was instilled with a deep respect for service and community. She began her career as a veterinary technician and has helped companies across the animal health industry turn strategy into action. Amanda lives in Idaho with her wife, Karlie, their son, and their pets and is running to bring practical, solutions-focused leadership to the issues that matter most—strong schools, accessible healthcare, and thriving communities.
They are endorsed by IEA (Idaho Education Association) and Idaho Women Forward.
Karlie Easley is running to unseat Lori Den Hartog as Senator in the Idaho Legislature.
Amanda Easley is running to unseat Jason Monks as a House Representative in the Idaho Legislature.
