Campaign themes

Quality Education For Our Kids
- Excerpt: "We must embrace good teachers who will inspire and encourage our children to learn how to learn. We must get “back to basics” in knowledge, training and skill sets. Not all kids are college bound and we must offer those students alternatives and options for careers that offer opportunity and prosperity in Arizona. Knowledge through a quality education is what motivates and brings creativity, innovation and foresight together affording opportunity and prosperity. Todd will fight for quality education in Arizona at the least cost to taxpayers."
Economic Growth, Jobs & Prosperity
- Excerpt: "Todd champions small business, industry relocation and new business start-ups. He will work hard to make Arizona the most business friendly state in America. Hi-tech businesses, such as the biosciences, aviation, optics, medical, research & development and especially solar power related companies will add thousands of high paying jobs to Arizona’s workforce. Arizona must be in position to compete with other states for these companies."
Efficient Government & Essential Services
- Excerpt: "Todd will fight to keep government small, lean and efficient; delivering essential core services, keeping taxes low and making accountability a priority."

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.
