BOISE, Idaho — The 2024 Idaho Republican Presidential Caucus is being held on Saturday, March 2 throughout the state.

In 2023, lawmakers in Idaho passed legislation to move primaries in Idaho to the same date in May as a cost-saving measure. However, the bill that was passed eliminated presidential primaries entirely. The State Legislature failed to agree on a proposal to amend the changes in time, and now both parties are left with presidential caucuses as their only option in Idaho.

Idaho News 6 will be providing live coverage and results of the caucus, but in the meantime, residents may have questions, so here’s some quick links to valuable caucus day resources and election information:

Please keep in mind that the March 2nd Idaho Republican Presidential Caucus is being administered by the Idaho Republican Party and isn’t being administered by the election office.
