Nicholeen Peck completed Ballotpedia's Candidate Connection survey in 2024. The survey questions appear in bold and are followed by Peck's responses. Candidates are asked three required questions for this survey, but they may answer additional optional questions as well.
| Collapse all
- Family: The values taught within the family unit become the building blocks of society, and therefore, must be honored and protected. The counters to family values are often social and political agendas.
Nicholeen has spent hundreds of hours fighting for family values both at the Utah Capitol, and in front of the United Nations.
She advocates for the protection of life at ALL STAGES of life from the very old to the very young.
Nicholeen is a strong supporter of parental choice in education and the health of their children.
Children are born to their parents, not to society. That obvious attachment and belonging to parents entitles parents to be honored as the primary stakeholders in their children’s lives. Parents should not - Faith: Religious liberty is a pillar of our freedom and must be protected from those who attempt to push political or social ideologies upon congregations and people of faith in order to destroy religious liberty and free speech. I will protect people of all faiths and will protect the freedom of speech to preserve the foundation of our society for future generations.
- Sovereignty: I promise to do my best to protect the sovereignty of the state of Utah from federal and international overreach. To seek out legislation that will preserve and restore a fair and honest election process in our state. To protect the small business owner by opening more doors for small businesses to thrive throughout the state. To preserve, protect, and restore Utah lands from the federal government, for Utah residents. To be a fiscal conservative in order to keep Utah funds safe for Utah's future.

Beyond my closest friends and family, I have had many people that I've learned from and looked up to from Mother Theresa and Gandhi to Wilberforce and Louisa May Alcott, but my greatest heroes come from Scripture. I love Mary the mother of Christ and Esther best I think.

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.
