Here we are again. Primary election season is well underway. Seems like we just finished this gauntlet a few weeks ago. As we all know, primary elections in Idaho are often the general election. However, for the first time in my memory, our general election this November will have more Democrats running against incumbent Republicans than we are used to seeing. In a bit of a repeat from my column of the same title 2 years ago, I thought I might share some of my personal thoughts on voting. This column is not an endorsement of any candidate or even party affiliation. Just offering up my basic philosophy and observations on the art and science of campaigning, something I have a little bit of experience with, albeit on a small local level.
