Warden's campaign website highlighted the following issues:[9]
| “ |
State spending has increased 23% over the previous legislative terms. Fortunately, this past 2 years we did something about it -- balancing the budget and reducing the burden on taxpayers. The Republican majority lived up to its promise of fiscal responsibility -- maintaining essential state services without adding more debt and deficit spending. With high unemployment and many businesses and workers struggling economically, the state bureaucracy must shrink to reflect economic realities. If you support economic recovery by responsibly adjusting spending and curtailing the size and scope of government, then please vote for Mark Warden on September 11th and again on November 6th.
For the economy to flourish in New Hampshire, small businesses and entrepreneurs must be free to innovate, expand, and take risks without so many burdensome taxes, regulations, license fees, and government bureaucracy. Taxes and excessive governmental controls kill the small businesses that provide jobs. As a small business owner and consultant, I fully understand this. Granite Staters are resourceful. They don’t need government’s help; they want government to get out of the way!
While Goffstown and Weare schools provide a decent education, property taxes are high (particularly in Goffstown). Many schools have expensive administrative and overhead costs that don’t directly contribute to educating students. Giving parents and students more choices in learning will deliver better service at a lower cost. When public, private, and charter schools are allowed (and encouraged) to compete, the result is better educational outcomes for all. Let’s free our schools from onerous top-down, one-size-fits-all regulations, and let teachers and principals, as well as parents and students, do what they do best at the local level.
Demands for protection of rivers, streams, and woodlands must be balanced with private property rights and recreational use, as well as the needs of travel and tourism. Thoughtful consideration must always be given to the need for energy resources for New Hampshire families.[10] |

Scorecards
A scorecard evaluates a legislator’s voting record. Its purpose is to inform voters about the legislator’s political positions. Because scorecards have varying purposes and methodologies, each report should be considered on its own merits. For example, an advocacy group’s scorecard may assess a legislator’s voting record on one issue while a state newspaper’s scorecard may evaluate the voting record in its entirety.
Ballotpedia is in the process of developing an encyclopedic list of published scorecards. Some states have a limited number of available scorecards or scorecards produced only by select groups. It is Ballotpedia’s goal to incorporate all available scorecards regardless of ideology or number.
