Beth Ann McFalls is the Democratic nominee for Idaho House District 10, Seat B. She faces Republican incumbent Bruce D. Skaug on the November 3, 2026 general election ballot.

Background and campaign
McFalls did not respond to idahonews.com's 2026 general election candidate survey by its deadline. She spoke at an Idaho 50501 "No Kings 3" protest at Nampa City Hall on March 28, 2026, alongside several other Democratic candidates, including gubernatorial candidate Terri Pickens and U.S. Senate candidate David Roth.
Where she stands
Her campaign donation page, hosted on ActBlue, carries the slogan "WE can do better!" It lists three issues: protecting Idaho's voter-passed Medicaid expansion, "meaningful property tax relief," and "adequate funding for special education programs." The page frames these as "practical, responsible solutions that lower costs and support Idaho families."
Opposition to HJR 4
McFalls opposes House Joint Resolution 4, a constitutional amendment sponsored by her opponent, Rep. Bruce Skaug, that would give the Legislature exclusive authority over legalizing or decriminalizing marijuana, narcotics, and other psychoactive substances. Yahoo News reported on the measure in September 2026 and identified McFalls as Skaug's opponent in the District 10 race.
McFalls told the outlet she wants the amendment rejected. "I personally think it needs to be voted down," she said. "In general, I think the citizens of our state should have more rights to determine how they feel about these particular drugs." On permanently removing the issue from the citizen initiative process, she said: "And to say forever and ever that they are going to make the decisions on this particular subject is nonsensical in a in a democracy, in a country like ours."

Idaho's campaign finance database shows her 2026 election cycle totals at $10,221.56 in contributions and $3,440.52 in expenditures, leaving an ending cash balance of $6,781.04.
