Why should voters elect you?
"We have maintained services while keeping taxes down. We still need to reduce the estate tax, preserve property rights and keep marriage."
What do you think is the most urgent problem facing your jurisdiction?
"With the influx of new jobs at Fort Meade comes the challenge of making sure that the necessary infrastructure is in place in time: schools, roads, water and sewage. Also, a secure and honest voting system is the essential foundation of our democracy, so elections must be free and open, but we must take every possible precaution to prevent voter fraud. A secure and honest voting system is the essential foundation of our democracy."
