Britt Raybould: Republican Nominee for Idaho House District 34 Seat B

Rep. Britt Raybould won a contested May 19, 2026 Republican primary for Idaho House District 34 Seat B, defeating Larry Golden 2,799 votes to 1,654 (62.86% to 37.14%), according to certified Idaho Secretary of State results. She is unopposed in the November 3, 2026 general election; no Democratic, independent, or write-in candidate filed for the seat.

Background

Raybould holds a bachelor's degree in English with a technical communications emphasis from Boise State University (2001), a Master of Professional Communication from Westminster College (2003), and, as of 2026, a Ph.D. in Public Policy and Administration from Boise State University, according to her campaign website, britt4idaho.com. She has served as chief financial officer of Raybould Brothers Farms since 2016, after eight years as the operation's director of food safety and technology, and owns Write Bold, a communications consulting business. She served as president of the National Potato Council in 2020–2021 after four years as its vice president for legislative and government affairs.

Legislative Record

Raybould has represented District 34 Seat B for two non-consecutive terms, from 2018 to 2020 and again since 2022. She currently serves on the Environment, Energy and Technology, Resources and Conservation, and Revenue and Taxation committees, per the Legislature's 2026 roster. During her first term she also served on the Joint Finance-Appropriations Committee. She served on the Environment, Energy and Technology Committee that introduced 2020's Right to Repair Act (H0452), which was never brought to a floor vote and died in General Orders.

In a March 2023 floor debate reported by the Idaho Capital Sun, Raybould spoke against a Medicaid budget bill that ultimately failed 34-36, saying: "Cutting the dollars is not going to change what the end result is." In 2025, she supported a Water Resources budget that included $30 million for infrastructure projects, which the Idaho Capital Sun reported passed the House 56-13.

Platform

In a 2026 East Idaho News candidate questionnaire, Raybould said her top priorities include improving public schools and literacy, expanding career-technical education, water resources, "community safety and protecting children from online exploitation," reducing property taxes, and local control over growth. On water policy, she said: "My primary goal is to keep Idaho's water decisions in Idaho's hands." Asked about ethics-hearing transparency, she said: "Absolutely not. The public deserves full transparency and accountability. Ethics hearing should remain public." On her motivation for serving, she said: "I've been incredibly lucky, and I'm doing this work because I want to create opportunities for others to succeed." In a 2023 blog post on her campaign website, she wrote about Idaho energy policy: "We may disagree about how to get there, but everyone wants the lights to come on when we flip the switch."

Raybould's 2026 campaign finance filings with the Idaho Secretary of State's Sunshine portal show a beginning cash balance of $33,899.78, total contributions of $46,450.00, and total expenditures of $27,288.83, leaving an ending cash balance of $34,899.78 and $15,000.00 in outstanding debt.
