Votes Idaho Company is a separate Idaho advocacy hub with Reclaim-adjacent personnel and overlapping national funders
Recorded status: Verified separate organization, leadership roles, Nash Reclaim activity, and IRS-derived funder overlap. No organizational-control inference.
This is a dated research record. Its qualifications and open questions are part of the account. Association alone does not establish wrongdoing or control.
Votes Idaho Company (EIN 46-5415188) is a Boise 501(c)(4) whose 2024 filing describes work on election-process/voting-rights education and research and facilitation/coordination among issue-advocacy groups. Its current executive director is Colin Nash, whom Boise reporting describes as having been active in Reclaim Idaho's Medicaid-expansion initiative. Its current board chair is Matt Compton, associate executive director of the Idaho Education Association; board member Mistie DelliCarpini-Tolman is publicly identified as Idaho state director for Planned Parenthood Alliance Advocates. IRS-derived grant data show Votes Idaho received approximately $562,000 from Western Futures Fund, $193,000 from Sixteen Thirty Fund, and $75,000 from Article IV across 2020-2024. Historical Idaho corporate records list Robin Nettinga, then a senior Idaho Education Association figure, among initial directors. This establishes a separate Idaho advocacy node with direct personnel overlap to Reclaim-related activity and direct funding overlap with national organizations already appearing in the Proposition 1/Way Back/Defend-and-Protect network. It does not establish Reclaim ownership, control, or coordination with Votes Idaho.
