Ballotpedia biographical submission form
The candidate completed Ballotpedia's biographical information submission form:
| “ | What is your political philosophy?
I have an independent philosophy with a desire to represent the people and not be confused with party politics. I am running for office because I believe the political parties that have kept themselves in power and their typical politicians no longer listen to the people they are supposed to speaking for.[3] |
