Idaho State Senator Shawn Keough represents some of the most beautiful, rural and conservative areas of Northern Idaho; Bonner and Boundary counties in Idaho State senate District 1. These two counties are the two most northern counties in Idaho one of which borders Canada. Bonner county has a population of approximately 40,000 people and the county seat is Sandpoint. Boundary county has a population of approximately 10,000 and its county seat is Bonners Ferry. This is the same area that elected staunch defenders of the Constitution and individual rights like District 1 State Representative Heather Scott (IFF 98%) and District 1 State Representative Sage Dixon (IFF 89%) both who earn an A rating from the NRA and are endorsed by the NRA. This is an area of Idaho where only approximately 30% of the people voted for Barack Hussein Obama in 2014. These counties supported Ron Paul in the Republican primaries. Yet they have voted for Shawn Keough a liberal authoritarian progressive nine times for State Senate.
Shawn Keough is rated a D (64%) by the National Rifle Association (NRA) according to Vote Smart and the NRA confirmed they did not endorsed Shawn Keough the last time she ran in 2012. She is one of the most active gun grabbing politicians in all of Idaho. There are democrats in Idaho with higher NRA ratings. State Senator Keough is rated only 41% by the Idaho Freedom Foundation (IFF) which rates politicians on their support of Liberty and being a fiscal conservative. Several democratic state Senators are rated higher by the Idaho Freedom Foundation (IFF). Shawn Keough voted to increase the gas tax and vehicle registration fees for all people in Idaho. Shawn Keough voted against a parent’s rights to be notified when Idaho government schools try to indoctrinate children in homosexuality (S1096) against their wishes. Shawn Keough is endorsed by the nations largest labor unions in the form of Idaho AFL-CIO. Shawn Keough voted against medical marijuana (SCR 112) a medical and liberty issue which affects many people. It is not Shawn Keough, the government or anyone else’s business what grass I grow in my back yard!
This woman wants to force all people in Idaho to report to the government how much their homes sold for (price disclosure) so she can collect more tax revenue through “automatic” annual price increase in your property tax. She wants to tax more so she can spend more on her socialists, pro-homosexual union allies working in governmental schools. Shawn Keough voted against requiring an ultrasound before murdering your unborn child (S1387). Shawn Keough voted against a ban on abortions after 20 weeks in Idaho. She supported bringing Obama care to Idaho. Shawn Keough supported forcing Common Core down the throats of parents in Idaho. Ok, I am loosing my ability to use my big boy words, Shawn Keough supports bringing Syrian muslims refugees to Northern Idaho. We do not know if these muslim Syrian refugees participated in the largest modern era genocide against Christians because the FBI has admitted they cannot be vetted. She says it is because her parents fled from Ireland and Scotland and thus she wants Northern Idaho to welcome muslim Syrian refugees into your schools, shopping malls and Christmas parties. While voting to restrict your ability to defend yourself.
I have an idea how this happen. First as indicated by Shawn Keough new “purple” colors she is a “moderate” who has been elected long enough to feel comfortable telling the free people of northern Idaho what to do with their guns and money. Also in 03NOV2015 in Bonner County, only 24% of the people, bothered to vote. It also appears that Shawn Keough helps the logging industry. We have previously witnessed companies that are willing to sacrifice our freedoms for their profit. Butch Otter the governor of the State provides her a lot of support. Thus Shawn Keough has help forced federal control of education (Common Core), federalized medicine (Obama Care) and is now supporting Butch Otter and Barack Hussein Obama in importing muslim Syrian refugees into the area while disarming the current people of Idaho.
Patriots, we must do better. Partisans, we must get a patriot man or woman to run against this authoritarian progressive. We must support that person with money and time. Even an hour a week can help a candidate out tremendously. And we must vote! Please forward this post to every patriot and Christian you can, especially in Northern Idaho. You are not only responsible to vote, you are responsible to get three other people to vote with you.
This site has been attacked by tyrannical foreign governments, Obama-era federal agencies, candidates for governor, and multiple progressive outlets. Progressives seem to hate any black conservative who walks off the liberal “woke” plantation. Social Media Internet ghettos have greatly diminished distribution of our content. This is called “Shadow-banning.” Please take a moment and consider sharing this article with your friends and family. Also please support our ability to continue to bring you a different perspective.

This article is full of BS that is obviously made up by someone who has some sort of vendetta against Shawn. She is a loyal CONSERVATIVE who has nothing but the best interest of her constituents in mind. She does not have an evil bone in her body and the people, or person responsible for this article need to be shipped out on the next train. You are the kind of people we natives DO NOT WANT spoiling the nature and people of north Idaho.
Unlike the media here in Northern Idaho who do not report the truth about State Senator Shawn Keough, I do. Can you please tell me anything in this article that is “BS.” Please share with us one thing. I would be more than willing to modify the article if I have made a factual mistake.
Dear Idaho native moderate liberal Tim,
If a politician votes the way she has voted according to my research, one would call them a liberal. Perhaps she talks a good talk giving lip service to conservative issues, yet how she actually votes on most major issues is rather like a California liberal (except in one area – medical marijuana). She is clearly part of logging industry, but that alone doesn’t make you a conservative. Good luck with your train shipments.
I find this article interesting and truthful and quite sorry that I did not print this in the Gem State Patriot as this legislator is one of the most liberal progressive RINOS we have in our legislature. Maybe it’s time everyone took a look at who Shawn Keough is and how she is helping turn Norther Idaho into a mini California. This professional politician is in the Governors hip pocket and will do and vote for just about anything he asks her to. It’s time for new leadership in Northern Idaho. Its time to dump Shawn Keough in 2016.

Twenty years ago I moved to Idaho and spoke with people from all over the country for business. Before we could talk business they would ask me questions like “are there a lot of skinheads where you live? and Do they have Klan meetings up there? and Does everybody carry a weapon?” I said that no, Sandpoint apppeared to be a bit Liberal with a lot of artsy folks. As time has passed I see publications like this one, have met a lot of folks who agree with this shit and now it is almost embarrassing to say that I make my home in Idaho. Get a clue people. She will get re-elected and with Hillary as the president for the next eight years maybe some of you will crawl back under that rock that you slithered out from
Please look at the other politicians I mentioned in this article especially Heather Scott. Ask your “buddy” if they have a single politician as hard core conservative libertarian as this chick. All three politicians are from District 1. I was pointing out the insanity of the same people voting for God-fearing patriots and then voting for godless pro-abortion, anti-Bill of Rights politicians. The same people!
You must be a partisan if you want to win this. At this time it is getting the best people elected. Later, well later is later. The “powers that be” are going after Heather Scott hard core. Are you supporting her? Get in the fight. Also lets support whoever is running against this authoritarian progressive.
Perhaps I am mistaken, but it appears that Kevin’s post above is some liberal trolling.
Just a note to Kevin who seems to like Hillary Clinton. My suggestion is that you move to N.Y.C. a place which I left 23 years ago to get away from people like yourself. You are part of the problem not part of the solution.
Who do you recommend who will be / is running against her?
Working on it. I will bring it to the blog once I can untie the knots.
How the heck did she get elected in the Redoubt? Crazy! Thanks for the local North Idaho posting.
Like nearly everyone, she was A+ rated by the NRA when she initially ran. She appeared to be more conservative. Enough time in the political soup and they always grow to the point where they get more “moderate” and have the attitude of “go along to get along.” Also she “brings home the bacon” for the logging and other industries in District 1. Vote for me, and I will steal other people’s money to give it to you in the form of “investment” in your area.
