Ballotpedia survey responses

Lamont Lavender completed Ballotpedia's Candidate Connection survey in 2025. The survey questions appear in bold and are followed by Lavender's responses. Candidates are asked three required questions for this survey, but they may answer additional optional questions as well.
| Collapse all
- Faith, Family, and Dignity Come First -Leadership should be guided by faith, grounded in family values, and committed to the dignity of every person. Government works best when it respects life, strengthens families, and treats people fairly—not when it loses sight of its purpose.
- Strong Jobs, Affordable Living, and a Growing Alabama Economy -A strong Alabama depends on manufacturing, infrastructure, and policies that lower the cost of living. By supporting Alabama workers, investing in roads and broadband, and cutting wasteful regulations, we can create good-paying jobs and help families keep more of what they earn.
- Safe Communities and Honor for Service -Public safety and respect for those who serve—law enforcement, first responders, and veterans—are non-negotiable. Safe neighborhoods, secure borders, and strong support for veterans and their families make Alabama a place where people can live, work, and raise families with confidence.
