No Kings Protest at Idaho Capitol Urges Boise Crowd to Vote, Register Voters
Organizers said the rallies are meant to boost civic participation as Idaho’s early voting starts Monday.
- On Saturday, hundreds gathered at the Idaho State Capitol for a "No Kings" rally, carrying signs and voicing concerns about national politics ahead of the upcoming election.
- While organizers claim the events encourage civic participation and voting, critics argue these demonstrations primarily oppose President Donald Trump and his administration rather than represent broad grassroots movements.
- Boise neighbor Cooper Hazel said he felt compelled to attend because of concerns over government transparency and the cost of living. "I think I'm just here because we want to have our voices heard and we want to make a difference," Hazel said.
- Early voting begins across Idaho on Monday, following the weekend rally. Idaho News 6 observed the gathering for one hour Saturday and did not see any organized counterprotesters on the Capitol grounds.
- As the November 3 general election approaches, voters are weighing candidates and ballot issues. Residents can find information about early voting, polling locations, and candidate guides through their county clerk's website.
