Idaho: John Watts of Veritas Advisors LLP joined us on September 17 to discuss Idaho politics. Mr. Watts gives us an overview of the gubernatorial race between Lt. Governor Brad Little (R) and Paulette Jordan (D). Jordan (D) pulled an upset in the Democratic primary beating the Party’s heir-apparent though he, like many others, expects Lt. Governor Little (R) to be successful in the general election. We discuss what issues the two are running on, the messaging in each campaign, and how those things are resonating with the voters. In particular, Jordan (D) is running on social issues that Mr. Watts is not convinced Idahoans are ready for. We also talk about the magnitude of the Medicaid expansion ballot question and how it’s effecting the governors’ race. Mr. Watts lays out potential issues for the Legislature to tackle in 2019 and some fun facts about the state.
