Khyre Edwards completed Ballotpedia's Candidate Connection survey in 2026. The survey questions appear in bold and are followed by Edwards' responses.
| Collapse all
- The United States government is unstable and on the brink of collapse, we must make major government reforms to stabilize the government. Some major issues are Climate change, corruption, and an abuse of agencies like ICE.
- The United States is currently unaffordable, but with a few quick changes this does not have to be the case. Housing is the most pressing issue, but childcare and education are also huge expenses. Day to day expenses like high interest rates and towing add up as well.
- The United States imperialism is destructive to the world and now that it is being turned inward towards us we cannot allow It to go unchecked. Supporting a genocide in Gaza, ignoring another one in Sudan, kidnapping Venezuela's president, bombing Iran... This was all within the last year. We are still using the War on drugs as an excuse to kill people, so why not end it?
A few smaller accomplished yet and are less talked about are:
Towing reform- I know, it seems small. But it's a property rights case nightmare, and very expensive.
