- Look at what our politics has become. The folks in office have sewed discord and division for their own political gain, all while ordinary people like you and I have had to worry about the rising cost of living, a global pandemic, a crumbling education system, and increasingly unsafe communities. And now the political games have escalated to a point where our very democracy is on the line. I think it’s time to have someone who lives these issues actually representing us in Raleigh, and that’s why I’m running for office. I am running to replace an out of touch establishment politician with someone who has spent her entire life fighting to better our community with common sense policies that unite rather than divide.
- We need new leadership to center our community with common sense policy. That means voting for new representatives. How many times do we re-elect the same politicians and expect a different result?
- I might look, sound, or act different from who you’re voted for in the past. But I think different is what we need to save our democracy and restore some dignity to politics. I’m asking you to take a chance on me!
