Chloe Sowers participated in Ballotpedia's candidate survey on September 10, 2018. The survey questions appear in bold, and Chloe Sowers' responses follow below.[1]
What would be your top three priorities, if elected?
“ | Legalize cannabis, legalize sports betting, legalize sex work.[2][3] | ” |
What areas of public policy are you personally passionate about? Why?
“ | Healthcare because psychology is a hobby of mine and there is too much distortion in the market which reduces choice and competition and keeps prices high; crime & safety & justice system reform because some people are treated very unfairly when they have not hurt anyone at all.Cite error: Invalid <ref> tag; invalid names, e.g. too many[3]
|
” |
Ballotpedia also asked the candidate a series of optional questions. Chloe Sowers answered the following:
Who do you look up to? Whose example would you like to follow and why?
“ | I follow my own path.[3] | ” |
“ | International Relations 101 by William Spaniel, The Machinery of Freedom by David Friedman, The Moral Animal by Robert Wright[3] | ” |
“ | To be mentally healthy and to not be a sociopath or a narcissist. Unfortunately high-functioning sociopaths and narcissists are often the most successful.[3] | ” |
“ | The ability to think rationally and to think through all the possibilities. Knowing how to play chess helps.[3] | ” |
“ | Make people's lives easier, better, less restrictive, happier, and less burdensome.[3] | ” |
“ | The fall of the Berlin wall at about 15.[3] | ” |
“ | Internship at a R&D subsidiary of AT&T and I had it for about 2 years.[3] | ” |
“ | The house provides greater representation and the senate represents more special interests.[3] | ” |
“ | Possibly as long as it's not too much otherwise they no longer represent the people and only represent special interests. If they spend too much time in politics, they no longer think like normal people and believe they know what's best for how people should live their lives.[3] | ” |
“ | Energy independence and high energy costs.[3] | ” |
“ | A friendly, open, frank, and transparent one similar to how discussions take place between the Prime Minister of England and the House of Commons.[3] | ” |
“ | Yes as it allows building a coalition to garner more votes for passing legislation and to point out the flaws in bad legislation.[3] | ” |
“ | Drawing each district as a polygon with at most 5 sides to avoid unnatural computer generated gerrymandered districts. Ideally, each district would be a square of roughly the same size.[3] | ” |
“ | Science, Health, Energy, Crime[3] | ” |
“ | No.[3] | ” |
“ | One resident said they run a treatment center for opioid addiction but that there are still too many addicts so I would be willing to direct resources away from enforcement and towards treatment.[3] | ” |
