Bannock County GOP
Leading the Way
Who We Are
The Bannock County Republican Party is responsible for identifying Republican voters and getting them to the polls, conducting Get-out-the-Vote operations, and conducting election-day operations. We need to identify Republican voters and ensure they participate in both primary and general elections.
We also work to recruit good candidates to run for positions in our area. We provide training and resources to help those candidates prepare to run and hold office.
The Bannock GOP also works to influence the Idaho GOP by attending the annual convention, proposing and voting on platform measures, and participating in fundraising activities.
