Ballotpedia survey responses

Blake Bracht completed Ballotpedia's Candidate Connection survey in 2025. The survey questions appear in bold and are followed by Bracht's responses. Candidates are asked three required questions for this survey, but they may answer additional optional questions as well.
| Collapse all
- Cost of living is consistently a top issue for voters, regardless of party affiliation, and for good reason - the once-basic promises of owning a home, saving for retirement, and starting a family feel out of reach for average people, especially young people entering the workforce. There are several policy changes we can make at the federal level to turn this trend around, like banning corporations from buying up single-family homes, closing tax loopholes that allow the ultra-wealthy to pay little to no income tax, raising marginal tax rates for the highest-income individuals and corporations, and giving tax breaks and credits to the wage earners who ultimately fuel economic growth.
- Healthcare in this country needs a complete overhaul. According to a 2025 survey by KFF, over one-third of Americans reported avoiding healthcare in the past year due to cost. That same survey found that just under half of Americans found it difficult to pay for healthcare costs. The American healthcare system is a swamp of private insurers with a profit incentive to deny claims, for-profit hospital systems with no price transparency, and patchwork legislation that fails to cover the gaps. There is a clear solution: Medicare for All. Universal healthcare is projected to be cheaper for average families and for the nation as a whole, in addition to being simply the right thing to do.
- Hardworking immigrants from around the world have come to the United States seeking freedom and opportunity for generations. Instead of honoring that legacy, some politicians blame the nation's problems on people seeking the American Dream to distract from their own refusal to make the economy work for the people. Immigrants are not political scapegoats to use when politically convenient - they are people who deserve dignity, respect, and an efficient legal process to enter the United States, join the workforce, and become citizens. Instead of spending billions to expel immigrants, let's make a clear path to citizenship for those brought here as children and those already here with no criminal record so we can grow the economy.
