I am Jerry Doliner. On December 14, 2023 I filed to run for NC House District 40 as a Republican.  While I have followed politics closely for many years, it wasn't until recently that I thought about running for office.  I have no political past, other than volunteering, attending meetings and helping in the 2022 elections for the Republican Party.

I moved to Raleigh in 1953 and have pretty much lived here since then.  I attended the Raleigh and NC public schools from Clarence Poe Elementary onto UNC Chapel Hill.  I have a wife, 3 grown children and 4 grandchildren.  I am a retired businessman, having owned the Blimpie Base sub shop in Chapel hill  right out of college, to owning and running a small chain of Dry Cleaners and Coin Laundries named "The Cleaners", and owning several rental houses.  I am fully retired since April, 2020.

Why politics now?  The extreme divisiveness in our country scares me.  The lack of a well informed populace coupled with a media that is not neutral is pushing our Republic to the brink.  Maybe I can bring a bit of truth and civility to this race and to the NC Legislature after I win this election.

I want to bring common sense to the legislature.  North Carolinians  need their Representatives to be for the good of the state before the good of their party.
I look up to all the super wealth idusstrialists pas and present. Most of them use(d) their great wealth to do good things for our country
I am calm. I can detect Bullsh*t when I hear it. I am not looking for a career in politics; definitely a citizen legislator.
Show up for every committee and legislative session. Listen to your constituants.
My family owned a clothing factory, I worked for a few dollars a day as a "bundle boy", moving unfinished pieces of clothing between the rows od sewing machines
Maintain our culture of hard work, hard play and politeness and caring for each other
Yes, It is a deliberative body; cooperation is required. Cordialitty if not actual friendship is rewuires within the caucus and accross the aisle.
Not suitable for mixed company or minors
Education, Alcohol laws
Both should be adhered to by government and insisted on my citizens
