- Description:
- A newspaper article discussing: In the 1980 election, Republican Steve Symms defeated Democratic Senator Frank Church, reflecting a national conservative shift and growing dissatisfaction with Church's liberal stances on key issues. The conservative trend also led to Republican gains in Idaho's state legislature and local elections, including the approval of wine sales in grocery stores. Political analyst Ben Plastino attributes these outcomes to a desire for stronger conservative leadership, as well as disillusionment with President Carter's lack of leadership.
