Ballotpedia biographical submission form

The candidate completed Ballotpedia's biographical information submission form:

What is your political philosophy?

My political philosophy consists of; a Non Aggression Policy, the government exists because of individuals and therefore the government servants do not have any more rights than the individual they serve and represent.

I hope to conserve our gun rights, reduce the cost and increase the quality of our education and healthcare, make a fertile environment for businesses, and offer a different solution for the opioid crisis.

Is there anything you would like to add?

I have studied economics and history vigorously. After being subjected to Adam Smith, Murray Rothbard and Thomas Sowell I adhere to Austrian Economics way of thought.[2]

—Tyler Colford[1]
