Issues

Campaign themes

2012

Gannon's campaign website described the following issue:[1]

  • K-12 EDUCATION
Excerpt: "The most direct contact many people have with government is the school system both as a student and later as a parent. Education is personal. That is why I support local school board decision making, based upon educator, parent and public involvement. Local government is a place where parents, school personnel and taxpayers have a direct and personal impact on important decisions."
