Gibbs' website highlighted the following campaign themes:^[15]

Our Local Economy

• Excerpt: "Phosphate is a one word answer to the local economy. The local economy in District 32 is driven by the phosphate industry. We are blessed with huge phosphate ore reserves. I will continue to promote environmentally safe mining and production in our district."

Our State Budget

• Excerpt: "I will support maintaining reserves for the future. I am happy to report that we were able to reinstate some of the programs that we had to reduce or eliminate. All state employees received a raise this year. I continue to have the goal of serving on the Joint Finance and Appropriation committee."

Jobs and the Economy

• Excerpt: "We in Idaho are fortunate to have many attributes that appeal to new businesses. We have a young well trained labor force that is ready to go to work. We have a balanced budget and therefore, don’t have a lot of debit that must be repaid. We must work to attract new business to locate in Idaho."

Improving Education

• Excerpt: "I believe that education reform is a must, however, I also believe that we will always rely on great teachers in the classroom."

Transportation in Idaho

• Excerpt: "The need is clear, however, the question remains as to how to fund the increased spending among all users. I will continue to explore ways to improve the road system with the cost being shared by all users."

Scorecards

Ascorecard evaluates a legislator’s voting record. Its purpose is to inform voters about the legislator’s political positions. Because scorecards have varying purposes and methodologies, each report should be considered on its own merits. For example, an advocacy group’s scorecard may assess a legislator’s voting record on one issue while a state newspaper’s scorecard may evaluate the voting record in its entirety.

Ballotpedia is in the process of developing an encyclopedic list of published scorecards. Some states have a limited number of available scorecards or scorecards produced only by select groups. It is Ballotpedia’s goal to incorporate all available scorecards regardless of ideology or number.
