Idaho State Statutes - Idaho Attorney Directory

Whenever any holder of a partisan elective office desires to change political
parties, the change shall only be effective if the holder files a declaration
of intent to change political parties with the election official with whom the
holder of the partisan elective office has filed his declaration of candidacy
for the office that the holder of the partisan elective office currently
holds. The party change shall be official five (5) calendar days after receipt
of the declaration of intent provided in this section by the election
official. After receiving the declaration of intent, the election official
shall send a copy of the declaration to the affected political party central
committees of both the political party, if any, that the holder of the
partisan elective office desires to leave and the political party, if any,
that the holder of the partisan elective office desires to join. A holder of a
partisan elective office cannot change political parties between the date the
holder of partisan elective office files for the primary election through
three (3) months after the general election in which the partisan elective
office was on the ballot. A holder of a partisan elective office only may
change political parties pursuant to this section once per term. The election
official shall be authorized to charge a holder of a partisan elective office
desiring to change his political party a twenty-five dollar ($25.00) fee to
defray the election official's expenses in administering the provisions of
this section.
