Ballotpedia survey responses

Kevin Stine participated in Ballotpedia's candidate survey on April 5, 2018. The survey questions appear in bold, and Kevin Stine's responses follow below.[4]
What would be your top three priorities, if elected?
| “ | 1) Housing |
” |
What areas of public policy are you personally passionate about? Why?
| “ | Housing is my top issue as there is a drastic lack of housing options available. This causes continually rising rents and increases the amount of families struggling to get ahead.Cite error: Invalid <ref> tag; invalid names, e.g. too many[6]
|
” |
Ballotpedia also asked the candidate a series of optional questions. Kevin Stine answered the following:
Do you believe that it's beneficial for state legislators to have previous experience in government or politics?
| “ | Yes. The State Legislature is not a place for on-the-job-training. It is important that legislators have a good background and knowledge in government or politics to be able to better serve their constituents.[6] | ” |
| “ | Of course. A good legislator should build relationships with members of their own party, as well as those in the other party. No individual can make things happen by themselves, so it is important that an elected official can get backing behind the bills they are trying to push forward.[6] | ” |
