The Boise-based Idaho Statesman, Idaho's largest newspaper, reported less than an hour ago that one term Republican Congressman Bill Sali has finally conceded in his congressional race for the 1st Congressional District to our new Congressman, Democrat Walt Minnick.

Earlier Wednesday at a GOP event, Sali declined to concede, saying he wanted to make sure every vote had been recorded properly first.
The race was close, with a 4,243-vote margin, but it wasn't within the one-tenth of 1 percent needed to trigger an automatic recount
Congrats to a our new Democratic Congressman from the 1st District in Idaho!!
