Stephen Snyder completed Ballotpedia's Candidate Connection survey in 2024. The survey questions appear in bold and are followed by Snyder's responses. Candidates are asked three required questions for this survey, but they may answer additional optional questions as well.
| Collapse all
- Term limits should apply at the state and national level. Even good people get boiled in the crab pot if they stay long enough. This job is about service, not "self-service". Representatives should perform that role for a limited time and then support the next person in the role who will represent the friends and neighbors of their area.
- Transparency and ethics in government are paramount. Lobbyists, special interest groups, and political action committees do not get to purchase votes. I will NOT take any money from special interest groups.
- Right is right, wrong is wrong, and the vote belongs to the people! I have a brain and a spine, I know how to use them both! If you are a politician who is using your position for your own benefit, or presenting legislation that doesn't make sense or is wasting time during a session while critical issues get pushed to the side, expect to be called out on it.
Chief Ten Bears:
It's sad that governments are chiefed by the double tongues. There is iron in your words of death for all Comanche to see, and so there is iron in your words of life. No signed paper can hold the iron. It must come from men...
When a carpetbagger or politician are feeding you a line or selling snake oil in a bottle that will fix anything, here is straight forward question.
1. Good jobs that keep our young people in our state rather than pursuing their passion elsewhere.
Economic development and education go hand-in-hand as West Virginia works to attract the best businesses to our state.
