Conrad Reynolds completed Ballotpedia's Candidate Connection survey in 2022. The survey questions appear in bold and are followed by Reynolds' responses. Candidates are asked three required questions for this survey, but they may answer additional optional questions as well.
| Collapse all
- I have signed the Term Limits Pledge and I want to pass term limit legislation to finally end the "career" politician.
- I will work to pass a Balanced Budget Amendment because it is crystal clear we will never curb our spending as long as we can continue to raise our credit limit.
- Focus on America First priorities, including border security, fair trade, energy independence, and holding people accountable for wrong doing.
Note: Ballotpedia reserves the right to edit Candidate Connection survey responses. Any edits made by Ballotpedia will be clearly marked with [brackets] for the public.

Campaign website
Reynolds' campaign website stated the following:
| “ |
A VOTE FOR CONRAD IS A VOTE FOR
|
” |
| —Conrad Reynolds' campaign website (2022)[6] | ||
2014
Reynolds' campaign website listed the following issues:[7]
- The Second Amendment
- Excerpt: "The 2nd amendment to the U.S. Constitution is a long-cherished right of “We The People.” It explicitly states that the right of the people to both keep and bear arms shall NOT be infringed. Since this right is an individual right, the restrictions against infringement apply to our government - whether federal, state, or local."
- Balanced Budget
- Excerpt: "Our spending is inarguably on an unsustainable trajectory. Without a balanced budget we will soon be in a financial crisis just like many European countries. I fully support a balanced budget amendment."
- Education Reform
- Excerpt: "We need to take a more balanced and free-market approach to education, rather than a one-size-fits-all government solution. More of the money allocated for education needs to go directly to classrooms, and less of it should go to bureaucrats."
- Lower Taxes
- Excerpt: "We have a lot of work to do if we want to revamp this tax code. Ideas like the flat tax or the FairTax are appealing ideas that I would like to see explored, debated, and implemented. One thing is for sure, our current tax code must be replaced. "
- Pro Life
- Excerpt: "I am Pro-Life and Pro-Family. Period."
