Idaho: Nampa School Board member easily survives recall vote

Nampa School Board member Kim Rost survived a recall vote 631-230. The recall was over complaints about targeting the Superintendent over coronavirus related stipends given out without board approval. Nampa's school board had a recall vote in March (Mike Kipp survived). 

The victory was overwhelming and did not trigger Idaho's "Queen of the Hill" recall provision -- the recall needs both a majority of the vote AND the Yes on Recall vote must top the totals from the official's original election in order to oust the official.
