Why are you seeking elective office?

To help make a difference in the lives of constituents. To keep them informed on important issues and above all else to do all I can to keep taxes low for everyone.

The single most pressing issue facing our (board, district, etc.) is _______, and this is what I intend to do about it.

Property taxes. I will work to stop liberal spending and to lower our property taxes. I believe in fiscal responsibility.

What are the critical differences between you and the other candidates seeking this post?

I cannot answer what the other candidates stand for until I know more about them.

If you are a challenger, in what way has the current board or officeholder failed the community (or district or constituency)

They have contributed to unnecessary spending in the state.

Describe the other issues that define your campaign platform.

I am pro life. Pro police. Pro Second Amendment. Pro parental rights. I believe in fiscal responsibility.

What accomplishments in your past would you cite as evidence you can handle this job?

Understanding how economics within government works. Understanding the issues, and having the ability to relate and to work with people.

The best advice ever shared with me was:

Be true to yourself. Don't be afraid to share your honesty and always remain open to ideas.

What else would you like voters to know about yourself and your positions?

Besides my platform issues listed above, I believe in the importance of listening and hearing all sides of an issue. I'm strong and honest and not afraid.
