I am a Rogers native, and have been fortunate to call this town and this county my home. I have been a life-long conservative Republican, and my life of public service began when I started my career as a Legislative Aide on Capitol Hill, and transitioned to working for the Republican Party of Virginia, the Republican National Committee and managing numerous campaigns for local, constitutional, and state-wide offices across the country.  I have spent the last 6 years working in the marketing and advertising industry, and I am currently a Brand Manager at Walmart Inc. I am the fortunate husband of my college sweetheart, and father of twin 2-year-olds. We are parishioners at St. Vincent de Paul Catholic Church in Rogers.

Scorecards

See also: State legislative scorecards and State legislative scorecards in Arkansas

A scorecard evaluates a legislator’s voting record. Its purpose is to inform voters about the legislator’s political positions. Because scorecards have varying purposes and methodologies, each report should be considered on its own merits. For example, an advocacy group’s scorecard may assess a legislator’s voting record on one issue while a state newspaper’s scorecard may evaluate the voting record in its entirety.

Ballotpedia is in the process of developing an encyclopedic list of published scorecards. Some states have a limited number of available scorecards or scorecards produced only by select groups. It is Ballotpedia’s goal to incorporate all available scorecards regardless of ideology or number.

Click here for an overview of legislative scorecards in all 50 states. To contribute to the list of Arkansas scorecards, email suggestions to editor@ballotpedia.org.
