What characteristics or principles are most important for an elected official?
“ | Empathy-You cannot serve the people without placing yourself into their shoes. Willingness to Compromise-Elected officials won’t agree on everything, but to do the work of the people you must be willing to compromise where appropriate. The people expect their leaders to produce meaningful results.[3] | ” |
“ | I am passionate about my community, and I understand and respect their concerns. I am running to be their public servant, and I will make courageous decisions that will improve their quality of life. That’s why they place us in office, and that’s exactly what I’ll do as State Representative.[3] | ” |
“ | “The Middle” by Zedd[3] | ” |
