 “I have seen Lori demonstrate her commitment to Idaho and her commitment to the Republican Party through her work with Canyon County Republican Women.  She seeks to learn from those who have laid the foundation of our great state and works to find solutions for the new challenges we are facing.  She is out and about in her community - listening, learning and serving.

Marc Grow

 “We have known Lori and Brett Bishop for over ten years and have seen their 

willingness to put forth effort to make and keep Idaho as great as possible.  We feel Lori will put her knowledge and experience to good use in the Senate.  She has indicated a willingness to listen to all sides and form the best opinions. There is a difference between knowledge and wisdom.  Knowledge is knowing that tomatoes are a fruit, wisdom is not putting them in a fruit salad.

Please join us in voting for Lori and wisdom.”

Alan and Melanie Mills, Mills Co Realty

“​​In a world that is growing evermore polarized about education choice.  It is very comforting to know that it does exist in Idaho. What a great State we live in that allows parents to be in the driver’s seat for their child’s education.  We need a solid citizen to stand up and declare that school choice does exist and should continue to flourish in Idaho. We do not need a national PAC or program to come in and tell us what that would look like.  Idaho has a parent-driven system in place.   We need a citizen who displays the morals and work ethic that will help education in Idaho continue to grow for all of Idaho’s children.  The Middleton School District is a partner in school choice.  We have full-time, part-time, one-class-only attendance and our extracurricular activities allow homeschooled, part-time, and full-time students to participate fully.   I have worked alongside Lori Bishop in her efforts to support her local school District.  She has demonstrated dedication, vision, and work ethic in working for the best outcome for her community. 

Please join me in voting for Lori Bishop on May 21.”

Pam Wagoner

“I have known Lori Bishop for 28 years and what a pleasure it has been!  I have always been impressed with how when making a decision, no matter how big or small, she informs herself and looks at the matter from all angles. I can confidently say that the choices she makes are always carefully considered. I know that if elected to represent District 10 Lori Bishop will put in the work to study and research how her vote will impact her constituents and the great state of Idaho. She has my support 100%.”

Kieran Dohahue

“When I heard Lori Bishop would be running for Idaho Senate I was not only excited but grateful. Having known Lori for several years I know not only what a unique and qualified perspective she has but also know her work ethic and desire to bring out the best in this community. Seeing as I have kids in the schools, a spouse who is a member of the military, a small business owner as well as having family who farm, Lori represents everything that I wish to see thrive in this community. I have every confidence she’ll continue to listen, serve and make tremendous positive changes that will help our community shine.”

Nicole Rupp

“I'm backing Lori Bishop for the Idaho Legislature for several reasons. Lori Bishop has a strong common sense background, is invested in Idaho and her people, and she knows how to get things done. She is a strong member of the Canyon County Republican Party. Lori Bishop also understands the need to provide a strong education for Idaho's youth. She volunteers in the classrooms and has assisted in levy and bond campaigns for the Middleton School District. She just doesn't talk about it. She lives it. In the past four years that I have known Lori Bishop, I've developed a deep sense of respect for her values and her willingness to put her name and reputation on the line to stand up to the likes of people who are not invested in Idaho.”

Julie Dombroski

As a concerned citizen deeply invested in the betterment of our community, I am proud to offer my wholehearted endorsement for Lori Bishop in the upcoming election. In a political landscape often clouded by partisan agendas and divisive rhetoric, Lori stands out as a beacon of level-headedness and a staunch advocate for education.

Lori's unwavering commitment to prioritizing education is not just a campaign promise but a cornerstone of her character. She understands that investing in our schools means investing in our future. Lori fosters an environment where every child has access to quality education, Lori has proven herself to be a true champion for our students and teachers alike. A census report recently came out that has Idaho as the last state in the union on per pupil spending, this is unexceptable for our state and our children. 

Beyond her passion for education, Lori possesses the rare quality of level-headedness that is sorely lacking in today's political arena. She approaches issues with thoughtfulness, pragmatism, and a willingness to listen to all perspectives. In a time when polarization seems to dominate every conversation, Lori's ability to bridge divides and find common ground is a breath of fresh air.

Moreover, Lori's track record of community engagement and collaborative leadership speaks volumes about her ability to effect positive change. She doesn't just talk the talk; she rolls up her sleeves and works tirelessly to make our community a better place for all its residents.

In Lori Bishop, we have a candidate who embodies the values of integrity, compassion, and progress. I am confident that with her in office, our community will flourish, our schools will thrive, and our future will be brighter than ever before.

Therefore, I urge my fellow citizens to join me in casting our votes for Lori Bishop. Together, let us embrace a future guided by education, reason, and inclusive leadership.
