The State Affairs Committee sent a bill to combine the regular and presidential primaries in Idaho to the House floor for technical amendments. Rep Ron Twilegar says it would save money and reduce confusion, with county clerks broadly favorable and Deputy Secretary of State Ben Ysursa noting only minor issues. A separate measure would issue lifetime state ID cards for a $5 fee, and the committee also discussed a constitutional convention resolution for a balanced federal budget.
