Get Out The Vote

Have you noticed how fired up people are all over the country for new faces, new ideas and a return to limited, constitutional government?

Tuesday's election here in Idaho will almost entirely decide who our next representatives will be, and yet the primary will be decided by only 3% of the population. Races are sometimes as close as one vote that decides who the winner will be. Let that vote be yours!

If we elect more career-first, establishment politicians, we won't get balanced budgets. The deficit will not be reduced. Our eroded liberties will not be returned.

What we'll get is just more of the same. More debt, higher taxes, and less freedom for ourselves and future generations of Americans.

And, as I'm sure you'll agree, we can't afford any more of the same!

That's why Champions of Liberty have stepped up to run for many offices, from Precinct Committeeman to U.S. Congressman. Some big races to watch:
  • Todd Hatfield is running to unseat the incumbent State Controller who failed to put state spending online and then opposed legislative efforts that would have required it. A fiscal conservative winning a statewide Constitutional office that manages Idaho’s fiscal affairs would be a major step in the right direction for the liberty movement.
  • In the 1st Congressional District, Idaho backed Raul Labrador is in a tight race for the Republican nomination against an opponent backed by the east coast establishment and who ran John McCain's campaign in Nevada where they shut down the state convention when it looked like Ron Paul delegates had a majority.
  • In the 2nd Congressional District, Constitutional Republican Chick Heileson could very well unseat the big-spending incumbent who voted for the Bankster Bailout and a long list of other Big Government schemes.
The big special interests, banking lobbyists, bailout recipients and all of the many other people who benefit from Big Government are out in force trying to elect fake fiscal conservatives. We need to outnumber them at the polls!

Here is what you can do: Please email and call at least 10 friends of liberty in Idaho and encourage them to vote and invite their friends of liberty to do the same. You can register at the polls on election day by providing any document which contains a valid address and a photo I.D. Find out where to vote at http://idahovotes.gov/.

It will be TWO YEARS before we get another chance to replace any RINOs. Let's get out the vote!
