Campaign themes

2018

Barron highlighted the following themes in an interview with Fox34:

“ No problem can be fixed because I'm a Democrat or my other opponent or anybody, whoever it is Republican or Independent. We all have different ideas, but if we can't work together, there's no point of bringing up a problem if we can't even look at solutions.[5][6] ”
—Ezekiel Barron (2017)
