Harry Kozlowski participated in Ballotpedia's candidate survey on September 28, 2018. The survey questions appear in bold, and Harry Kozlowski's responses follow below.[1]
What would be your top three priorities, if elected?
“ | Marijuana legalization and taxation, Sports betting and blocking school vouchers, aka diverting public education funds to private schools.[2][3] | ” |
What areas of public policy are you personally passionate about? Why?
“ | New Hampshire, lacking a sales or income tax, and with some of the highest property taxes in the nation, needs new revenue sources. Legalized marijuana and sports betting are two prime sources for new funds. Also with 3 neighboring states about to begin legal marijuana sales, it's critical New Hampshire not fall behind. Also I want to defend public education from the "false choice" of vouchers, which are really meant to siphon pubic dollars to private and home schools.Cite error: Invalid <ref> tag; invalid names, e.g. too many[3]

Ballotpedia also asked the candidate a series of optional questions. Harry Kozlowski answered the following:
Who do you look up to? Whose example would you like to follow and why?
“ | I admire Barney Frank and his direct, no-nonsense way of legislating. I'm ready to talk and find common ground as long as the other side is serious and equally ready to give some ground.[3] | ” |
“ | Not really, other than I have a low tolerance for BS.[3] | ” |
“ | A willing to talk and be willing to craft legislation where everybody gets something but no one gets everything. Also someone who will be realistic with voters and not make promises that can't be achieved.[3] | ” |
“ | I have no aspirations for higher office. So I don't care about currying favor. I just want to do what's right.[3] | ” |
“ | Understand it's the people's money you are spending and you better choose wisely. But also understand that money does need to be spent and society can't function without competent government.[3] | ” |
“ | Never thought about legacy.[3] | ” |
“ | Kennedy assassination in 1963. I was 5 years old but I knew what happened was earth shaking.[3] | ” |
“ | I was a janitor. I was 15 at the time. Lasted just a few months before I got a job at a department store.[3] | ” |
“ | I've had some bad dates. The worst was when my girlfriend revealed to me that she was seeing someone else while we were out at dinner. I was 17.[3] | ” |
“ | Christmas, but only as I remember it in my youth in Buffalo. The Polish meatless Wigilia dinner on Christmas Eve, Midnight mass, then drinks with friends and family after mass. Not into what the holiday has become, and certainly no fan or believer of the alleged "war on Christmas" being pushed by some.[3] | ” |
“ | "1984." It's a warning of what can happen with people are immune to BS.[3] | ” |
“ | Can't think of one.[3] | ” |
“ | I own several original artworks. Nothing of great value or by anyone famous. But I think they are terrific.[3] | ” |
“ | Caroline Rose "Jeannie Becomes A Mom."[3] | ” |
“ | I grew up with a functioning level of A.D.D. For me multitasking is a way of making use of that need for distraction.[3] | ” |
“ | New Hampshire actually has four levels of government: house, senate, the executive council and the governor. The executive council carries the most weight but the house can still impose it's will when it's united on legislation.[3] | ” |
“ | It helps to have a understanding of the issues and how government works.[3] | ” |
“ | When all sides are working towards the good of the state and its people and not serving the agenda of moneyed interests.[3] | ” |
“ | It helps to see your opponents as people and get to know them. It makes it easier to talk.[3] | ” |
“ | I would prefer an impartial panel. I'd even prefer redistricting by computer, ensuring balance of parties.[3] | ” |
“ | Ways and Means. Anything where new revenues can be developed.[3] | ” |
“ | n/a[3] | ” |
“ | n/a[3] | ” |
“ | n/a[3] | ” |
“ | No.[3] | ” |
“ | I've gotten to know the Nepalese immigrant community in New Hampshire. These are people who came to the USA and have become successful and prosperous in a relatively short period of time. They are the textbook example of the American dream. I worry the recent push by ICE to make random stops is a violation of the civil rights of anyone who does not appear to be white, assuming illegality of anyone of color. This must stop.[3] | ” |
