Living as a Democrat in red state Idaho for 19 years, the idea of attending the Dem caucus felt like a futile endeavor. I've always shown up to vote on election days to at least secretly savor the idea that I was cancelling out my now ex-husband's ballot choices. As Idaho is a lightly populated state, the caucuses are county events instead of being portioned down into voting precincts, and my county, Canyon's caucus was in a high school's auditorium.
