BOISE — Republican Tommy Ahlquist, a medical doctor and developer, announced this morning in Boise that he is running for the governor of Idaho.
“I’m running for Governor because I believe in Idahoans, and I believe with fresh ideas and new leadership we can build an even better Idaho,” said Ahlquist. “My career in business and medicine has taught me valuable lessons about the role of government, the failures of overregulation and an appreciation for hard working Idahoans.”
