The Idaho Republican Party (IDGOP) is the Idaho state affiliate of the United States Republican Party, headquartered in Boise. It is currently the dominant party in the state, controlling both of Idaho's U.S. House seats, both U.S. Senate seats, the governorship, and has supermajorities in both houses of the state legislature.

History

By the time of the 1889 Constitutional Convention, the Republican Party had become a prominent Party in Idaho, and made up the majority of the representatives at the Constitutional Convention for statehood. Republicans and Democrats had equal influence in Idaho until the 1960s when the Republican Party emerged as the dominant political Party.{{Cite news|url=http://boisestatepublicradio.org/post/how-idaho-became-one-party-state#stream/0|title=How Idaho Became A One Party State|last=Cotterell|first=Adam|access-date=2018-05-15|language=en}} The Republican Party has held the governorship since 1995, both US Senate seats since 1981, and both US House seats since 2010.

As of 2022, Idaho has the second largest percentage of Republicans in a state legislature. Republicans control all constitutional offices in the state and maintain supermajorities in the House and Senate.

The party had been reported to have a growing faction of far-right political activists, with a concentration in Kootenai County.{{Cite web |date=2022-05-17 |title=Living With The Far-Right Insurgency In Idaho |url=https://www.huffpost.com/entry/far-right-idaho_n_628277e2e4b0c84db7282bd6 |access-date=2022-05-31 |website=HuffPost |language=en}} In 2021, the Koontenai County Republican Central Committee endorsed Dave Reilly, a political activist from Pennsylvania who attended the 2017 Unite the Right rally{{Cite web |date= August 15, 2017 |title=Bloomsburg Radio Personality Involved in Alt-Right March in Charlottesville |url=https://www.wnep.com/article/news/local/columbia-county/bloomsburg-radio-personality-involved-in-alt-right-march-in-charlottesville/523-677603b7-04b1-43bd-9fa9-e90a34a366c3 |access-date=2022-05-31 |website=wnep.com |language=en-US}} and has gained notoriety for antisemitic public statements, for candidacy in a Post Falls school board election.{{Cite web |date=2021-10-28 |title=He has a history of antisemitic tweets — and now a GOP endorsement for school board |url=https://forward.com/news/477343/david-j-reilly-antisemitic-tweets-idaho-school-board-post-falls/ |access-date=2022-05-31 |website=The Forward |language=en}} The KCRCC has also made public statements in support of Austrian neo-nazi activist Martin Sellner{{Cite web |title=Kootenai County GOP urges feds to let Austrian nationalist into U.S. to marry alt-right YouTube pundit {{!}} The Spokesman-Review |url=https://www.spokesman.com/stories/2019/apr/27/kootenai-county-gop-urges-feds-to-let-austrian-nat/ |access-date=2022-05-31 |website=www.spokesman.com}} and the anti-communist John Birch Society.{{Cite web |title=Resolution supporting the John Birch Society |url=https://www.kootenaigop.org/blog/2021/07/28/2021-7-28-resolution-supporting-the-john-birch-society-6fgzl |access-date=2022-05-31 |website=Kootenai County GOP |language=en-US}} Outside of Koonetai County, within the Idaho Legislature, Rep.
