Why are you seeking elective office?
To serve the people of Nashua and the state of NH
The single most pressing issue facing our (board, district, etc.) is _______, and this is what I intend to do about it.
Rising taxes. I will fight and vote to preserve the New Hampshire Advantage by voting against superfluous spending bills and NO INCOME OR SALES TAX in New Hampshire!
What are the critical differences between you and the other candidates seeking this post?
My Democrat opponents are more interested in social issues bringing "free" services to anyone - at the expense of Nashua taxpayers - without fully vetting those services and how they will affect our taxes
If you are a challenger, in what way has the current board or officeholder failed the community (or district or constituency)
I've seen Democrats in Concord vote for disastrous bills that would burden our city and state's economy. I will bring a fiscally conservative vote that will ease the burden on taxpayers while also considering necessary extra services
Describe the other issues that define your campaign platform
I will always vote AGAINST an income or sales tax. Period.
What accomplishments in your past would you cite as evidence you can handle this job?
I've been a political activist for over 20 years and I understand how local and state government works, and I know how to separate fact from fiction and how to disseminate truth from opinion
The best advice ever shared with me was …
Be true to yourself
What else would you like voters to know about yourself and your positions?
I am my own person and passionate about my beliefs without opinion clouding my judgment
