Why is Dixon hiding his intentions?
With the November election having passed, political activity usually transitions to the next election(s).
The Republican Presidential Caucus is set for March 2, 2024 and the Primary Election in May of 2024. According to BCRCC Chairman Scott Herndon, the official Republican website, bonnergop.org, is weeks overdue in identifying party caucus requirements needing to be met by Dec. 31, 2023.
Speaking to next elections, state Rep. Sage Dixon hasn‘t advised North Idaho, Legislative District 1 voters, local Republican leadership, and media of his future political office campaign intentions. Perhaps Representative Dixon could confirm or dispel two rumors. First, he is running for Bonner County commissioner to implement former Commissioner Dan McDonald’s unfinished county growth business. Second, Congressman Russ Fulcher seeks to hand the federal decay and booty to Dixon.
Apparently, Dixon’s intended “public service” is only a local secret, as lobby groups in Boise already know of Dixon’s intention of not running for state representative in 2024.
Why are local constituents and media last on Dixon’s political agenda?
Regardless, two-thirds of the BCRCC, comprised of Chairman Herndon and activated Christians who knock on doors for legislative District 1 offices, have moved past Dixon’s communication failure(s) in prematurely selecting state representative candidates for the Legislative District 1A and Legislative District 1B offices, by violating IDGOP Rule Article IX, section 1 — “endorsements may only be made by a majority vote of the voting members and available to all eligible candidates, [candidacy deadline is mid-March] for any given office being endorsed."
Principles be damned for the cause.
