Boise, ID - Idaho Congressman Walt Minnick told Boise State Radio yesterday that he was checking in on election results from around the country, with the hope that the results would favor those who "are willing to be bipartisan and work across the aisle." The NPR affiliate interviewed Walt late Tuesday. He said Congressional leaders from both parties should not worry so much about political points, and should instead work together to toward compromise and consensus. 

 

"Whether they be Republican or Democrat, I would like to have the middle-of-the road pragmatists do better [at the polls] than the people who are at the extremes, frankly, of either party," Minnick said.
