Campaign themes

McClendon's website lists the following issues:

• Jobs

Excerpt: "We need to get our economy moving again. In the Senate, I will advocate for policies that create and retain jobs."

• Taxes

Excerpt: "My opponent has voted for more than $500 million in new taxes during his time in Olympia. During these difficult economic times, raising taxes is not the answer. I support lowering the tax burden on families and small businesses to get our economy moving."

• Education

Excerpt: "I will take a different approach. As the father of three school-aged children, I will support full-funding for our public schools. Our children deserve nothing less."

• Spending
