With the close of the presidential primary declarations on December 11, 2019, CP-Idaho is please to announce that our State party will field six (6) presidential candidates in the March 10, 2020 primary. 

In order of the filing date and time of the candidates, as reported by the Idaho Secretary of State, our CP-Idaho 2020 presidential primary candidate slate is as follows:

  • John Richard (J.R.) Myers--Montana
  • Don Grundmann--California
  • Dan Cummings--Wyoming
  • Don Blankenship--West Virginia
  • Sheila (Samm) Tittle--Virginia
  • Charles Kraut--Virginia

CP-Idaho has begun work in earnest upon bringing about a public debate by our candidates prior to the primary election in order to permit the Idaho electorate an opportunity to compare and contrast our 2020 primary candidate class. 

We will be posting updates to this work in process here on our website, and will be carrying on the conversation on our facebook page. We urge our presidential candidates to notify CP-Idhao regarding any campaign events during the 90 day pre-rpimary period.  We will post those notices on this, our state party's website, as well.

Lastly, please note a correction.  Though previously announced as a declared primary candidates, Mr. Darcy Richardson of Florida opted to not to declare his candidacy for the 2020 Idaho presidential primary.  The Secretary of State will shortly be publishing the final primary candidate list.

To our six delcared candidates, welcome to Idaho's 2020 Primary.

December 11, 2019.  At close of business today, the presidential candidacy declaration window closes, and the 90 day pre-primary window opens.

 

During the pre-primary period, a hive of activity will take place, not the least of which will be preparations for the "Boise Debate" on February 29, 2020.  This debate will be our 2nd public debate of Constitution Party of Idaho candidates. Already, we are in a bigger league. 

 

By way of background, in 2016, our state party took a different, far more difficult path, than did the national party. We believed then, as we believe now, that proxy balloting based on national convention delegates supposedly "voting their conscious" is an anathema to liberty, a grotesque mutation of representative democratic process and a surefire route to the imposition of theocracy. 

 

CP-Idaho stood against this dangerous proxy ballot scheme.  Again, without demonstrable proof of direct preference ballots from the electorate, those "conscious voting" individual delegates have no evidence that they are representative.  Proxy ballots for election purposes are expressly forbidden under parliamentary rules, and therefore, because the national party felt that it too (like its counterpart duopoly) could ignore those rules meant that CP-Idaho could not longer travel with them, not unless we too would abide hypocrisy. 

 

In 2020, CP-Idaho is an unaffiliated ballot qualified state political party.  What we find encouraging is that, for all the rancor shown to us, several national CP candidates have also parted with the national party and are seeking our sovereign state party's primary nomination.  We take that as a tacit admission that CP-idaho was absolutely correct in 2016 to refuse to disfranchise our Idaho voters in what we considered then (and still do) to be a corrupt process of semblance over factual substance.

 

Regardless, CP-Idaho wishes to extend our gratitude to our presidential candidates who are standing in the 2020 primary. Our citizen candidates' determination to provide a voice and an alternative to the many unheard and unrepresented merits our thanks. For this is what our nation's founders had in mind all along...the true check and balance of a competitive political process over our government.

 

At this point, midday December 11, 2019, we have four presidential primary candidates. CP-Idaho appeals to all of our presidential candidate campaigns to establish and keep contact with CP-Idaho. With only a mere 90 days remaining until the statewide primary poll, much work is required so as to insure that CP-Idaho stands well-versed and well-reasoned candidates before our Gem State electorate.  And this, ladies and gentlemen, is the true prize.

 

We also appeal to our registered CP-Idaho voters.  Please lend a hand by your generous donations and by volunteering your precious time.  We, CP-Idaho, cannot easily do our work without your support. Lastly, may God preserve and keep our republic. Esto perpetua.
