2024 General Election - won
Glenneda Zuiderveld is from Jerome, Idaho, and operates a business in the dairy industry as well as represents a synthetic oil company in their sales department. Zuiderveld’s political career began with an unsuccessful bid for Idaho State House Representative District 25A in 2018, which led to a successful State Senate campaign in 2022. She is a member of the far-right Idaho Freedom Caucus along with other State legislators and has the endorsements of their affiliate organizations.
Sen. Zuiderveld used her substack (blog) to share the name, address, phone, and private information of a political organization leader’s family and children. This doxing of children was done to harass and intimidate a moderate Republican whom Zuiderveld saw as an enemy.
