Ballotpedia survey responses
Fulton stated the following about his political philosophy in a biographical submission to Ballotpedia:[1]
| “ | As a registered non-partisan, I can listen to the concerns of the citizens in my district without distractions or pressure to conform to the Republican or Democratic Parties. As a public school graduate, I am committed to see that every student in District 6 has access to a well-funded, quality public school. I would not agree to any voucher program or charter school bills.
I grew up in the district and was educated in this area. I worked as a mailman in the area and our children were raised and educated in the local public schools. I know the people that live in the area, their concerns, their problems and their successes. I am the best candidate running for this position of Nebraska Legislature District 6. [2] |
