Idaho 1st Legislative District House Seat B

About this race: Four-term Republican incumbent George Eskridge has focused on energy, veterans’ issues, property tax relief and the state budget since he’s been making the annual trip to Boise, but his Democratic challenger, longtime community volunteer and retired garden center owner Tom Hollingsworth, said he’s concerned that special interests have too much sway in the Legislature and that North Idaho’s needs get overlooked.

Constituency: Boundary County and parts of Bonner County.

Salary: $15,646
