Among the other proposed Idaho Republican Party resolutions this week is one calling for not recognizing "imaginary identities," a resolution aimed at transgender people. Trump, for example, in 2016 defeated Democratic candidate Hillary Clinton by winning more electoral college votes despite losing the popular vote by about 3 million votes. The proposed system for Idaho would tally electoral votes from counties. Such a change in Idaho would require changing the state’s constitution.
