Infighting continues among Idaho's GOP

COEUR d’ALENE — Infighting at the state level of the Republican Party continued this week, as two factions called separate meetings of the central committee to determine who will lead the party.

“The executive committee met last week because we had some paperwork that had to be filed with the Secretary of State’s office and the Federal Election Commission,” said Cindy Siddoway, Idaho’s National Committeewoman.

Siddoway, who is the spouse of Idaho Sen. Jeff Siddoway, R-Terreton, said the party’s executive committee elected interim officers who were able to sign the federal and state reports, and they also voted to set up a state central committee meeting to elect officers before the Republican National Committee meeting.
