Nader Liddawi completed Ballotpedia's Candidate Connection survey in 2026. The survey questions appear in bold and are followed by Liddawi's responses.
| Collapse all
- Affordability: I support policies that help families keep more of what they earn by addressing everyday costs like housing, energy, and taxes, while maintaining responsible budgeting and long-term fiscal stability.
- Economic Development: Northwest Indiana’s growth depends on attracting investment, supporting small businesses, and preparing workers for evolving industries so residents can find stable, well-paying jobs close to home.
- Redistricting: Redistricting should keep communities together and maintain public trust. I support transparent standards and exploring voter-approved referendums to give residents a direct voice in how district maps are drawn.
