Idaho Democratic Party in financial trouble?
Posted by Jessica in Idaho Democrats
Word on the street is that the Idaho Democratic Party is broke and in the hole by around $100,000. If so, that is troubling and unfortunate.
I remember receiving an email wherein one of the employees of the state party was resigning, though I believe he was being paid directly by the DNC. Though I can't help but wonder if it was related to the party's financial problems in Idaho.
Any Democrat running in Idaho faces an uphill battle, and some Democrats running in Idaho stand virtually no chance, but this doesn't mean we should throw in the towel and give up. Idaho won't always be so red and Democrats will only get elected if we keep having Democrats run, if we have a strong Democratic party and if we donate money to keep it strong.
Working to end the War in Iraq is much like getting Democrats elected in Idaho. It often times feels fruitless and pointless, but it isn't. It is everything but. We may not end the War in Iraq and we may not get Larry LaRocco elected, but there are smaller victories to be had and eventually we can end the war and we can have a Senator who is a Democrat in Idaho.
So, if you can, donate to the state party here.
