Q&A
Define what “success” would look like if you are elected to serve your district.
To me success would be having the knowledge and ability to assist my constituents with their interactions with state government. Being a resource to them is what a representative should be.
Characterize your view on public access to governmental business.
All citizens should have equal access to governmental business as long as it doesn’t violate the privacy of others.

We believe it's important to offer commenting on certain stories as a benefit to our readers. At its best, our comments sections can be a productive platform for readers to engage with our journalism, offer thoughts on coverage and issues, and drive conversation in a respectful, solutions-based way.
