How to get the Kootenai County voter file
Request it from the office below, send us the file, and you're ready to cut turf. Running countywide or in just part of Kootenai County? This is the office either way.
- Where to request it
- Kootenai County Elections Department (under the County Clerk)elections@kcgov.us | (208) 446-1030 | Elections Department: 1808 N. 3rd Street, Coeur d'Alene, ID 83814 | County Clerk: Jennifer Locke — (208) 446-1660 | Elections Supervisor: Christi Olesen
- Cost
- 'Actual cost' only per Idaho Code 34-437. No published flat schedule on the Kootenai County site; expect a small duplication + staff-time fee ($5–$50 range typical). Get a quote from the Elections Department before submitting if cost is a constraint.
- How to request
- Submit a records request to the Kootenai County Clerk's Records Request portal (kcgov.us/1086) or directly to the Elections Department by email/phone. The county's published guidance is that candidates and political parties can request voter lists, with use restricted to political purposes per Idaho Code 34-437. Specify fields, scope (Kootenai-only), and use certification. For full-state pulls, the office will redirect to the SOS.
- Turnaround
- 3 working days for response per Idaho Code 74-103; fulfillment may take longer for larger requests. Out-of-state requesters get the 30-day cap.
- Use restrictions
- Same as statewide: non-commercial use only (Idaho Code 34-437 + 74-120); political use permitted; mailing/telephone-list and solicitation use prohibited. Kootenai's published FAQ explicitly notes that voter lists are restricted to political use.
Costs and rules change — confirm the current details with the office before you order. Once you have the file, we handle loading it, cutting turf, and getting your volunteers knocking.
