Scott Bedke Celebrates Victory in Idaho Republican Primary Election for Lieutenant Governor
Boise, IDAHO – With thousands of supporters turning out to the polls, Scott Bedke has secured the Republican nomination in the race to become Idaho’s next Lieutenant Governor. Bedke, a fourth generation Idaho rancher and the longest-serving Speaker of the House in Idaho history, says tonight’s primary results are a win for Idaho.
“Idahoans want consistent, pragmatic, and conservative results to come from the Lieutenant Governor’s office. As your next Lieutenant Governor, I will never embarrass Idaho. Instead, I will continue fighting to protect our shared conservative values and serve as an ambassador for our great state,” said Bedke. “But tonight’s victory is just the first step. Joe Biden and the D.C. Democrats have their sights on Idaho. No matter who you voted for in this race, Idaho conservatives must join together to ensure Idaho remains the best place to live, to work, and to raise a family. I look forward to earning your vote and support in the General Election.”
As Speaker of the most conservative legislative body in the country, Bedke led the charge to deliver historic tax relief, balance the budget, cut needless regulations, and protect Idaho’s land and water rights. With the Primary Election in the rearview mirror, Bedke plans on traveling the state to hear what Idahoans want from their next Lt. Governor.
