Larry Dunn
District 7 House B
Larry Dunn is a U.S. Marine veteran who serves on the Board of Trustees for Mountain View School District #244 and the Idaho County Republican Central Committee. During his time on the School District Board of Trustees, Dunn cut tax-payer funding to local public schools. Dunn and Kyle Harris (who is running for District 7A) have been endorsed by incumbent Mike Kingsley, who, against the wishes of health professionals, supported suspending the Idaho Maternal Mortality Review Committee before the effects of the state abortion ban could be investigated. Kingsley is also head of the Idaho Freedom Caucus PAC: the state’s most hardline conservatives. Dunn is also endorsed by abortion abolitionist Idaho Senator Dan Foreman of District 6– he is known for removing rape and incest exceptions from Idaho’s abortion laws. With support from Kingsley, Foreman, and the Idaho Freedom Caucus, Larry Dunn is seeking his first term in office.

Are all board members in favor of the levy?” ... “At this point, I am not,” board vice chair Larry Dunn stated. He said he wants to go through the upcoming budget workshops as part of the process of deciding if a levy is needed. “I want to see it all. This [process] is good for us. I’m not going to tell you something I cannot follow through with.”
