In 2023, Idaho’s presidential primary was removed from state statute. The original announcement described this as leaving Republican voters without a state presidential primary for the 2024 nominating contest.
That summer, members of the state central committee voted to select delegates for the Republican National Convention’s presidential nominating contest through a caucus system. The announcement said this would move Idaho earlier in the Republican presidential nominating calendar, before Super Tuesday.
The original post invited eligible participants to attend the Idaho presidential caucus and advised readers to watch for further information from county and legislative district organizations.
What happened afterward
The caucus was conducted as a county-based event using a secret ballot on March 2, 2024. Because the event and its associated deadlines have passed, this article is now presented solely as an archival record.
