Please list below 3 key messages of your campaign. What are the main points you want voters to remember about your goals for your time in office?

• My main reason for running is to educate the electorate about the difficulties that other party candidates face even appearing on the ballot. It has been 20 years since an Independent or other party candidate has appeared in a statewide election. The cost for the Libertarian Party to have ballot access in 2022 was over $250,000.
• Eliminate straight-ticket party voting. Alabama is one of the few states that still allows this practice. Voters should educate themselves and choose the most qualified candidate in each race.
• There is too much money in politics.

What areas of public policy are you personally passionate about?

Reducing the size and scope of government.

Note: Ballotpedia reserves the right to edit Candidate Connection survey responses. Any edits made by Ballotpedia will be clearly marked with [brackets] for the public. If the candidate disagrees with an edit, he or she may request the full removal of the survey response from Ballotpedia.org. Ballotpedia does not edit or correct typographical errors unless the candidate's campaign requests it.
