Ballotpedia biographical submission form
The candidate completed Ballotpedia's biographical information submission form:
| “ | What is your political philosophy?
I've never run for office before, but I decided to seek this open seat when it became real to me how toxic the bitterly partisan political divide had become. Is there anything you would like to add? I watched the aftermath of the 2016 election with my foster daughter and was shocked by how polarized we've become. I decided to be the example my daughter needed of a woman who stands up for what is right, cuts through the partisan bickering, and speaks for the community rather than special interests.[2] |
