Eric Su completed Ballotpedia's Candidate Connection survey in 2026. The survey questions appear in bold and are followed by Su's responses.
| Collapse all
- Affordability that works for real families The cost of living is squeezing working families, seniors, and small businesses. I’m running to push back on higher taxes, rising fees, and everyday costs—so people in District 21 can stay, work, and retire in the communities they love.
- Public safety and accountability, without political extremes Our neighborhoods deserve to feel safe and supported. I believe in smart, practical public safety policies that support law enforcement, demand accountability, and keep violent crime off our streets—without turning public safety into a political talking point.
- Local leadership, not career politics I’m a small business owner and coach, not a career politician. I show up, listen, and solve problems. District 21 deserves a representative who understands real life, works across differences, and puts the community first—not party agendas.
