Campaign themes
2014
Kampf's campaign website highlighted the following issues:[1]
Jobs/Economy
- Excerpt: "Warren knows that these are only first steps and our state needs to continue its efforts to become more competitive in attracting jobs. He will continue to work for tax structure changes that put our state in-line with others, regulatory reforms that protect our people while providing fair and uniform oversight, and more."
Property Taxes
- Excerpt: "Warren will continue to push for mandate relief that will reduce the burden placed on local governments and school districts to pay for things for which they receive no state funding; this would help reduce unfair costs for taxpayers."
Spending
- Excerpt: "While important steps to instill fiscal discipline have been taken, Warren knows there is still more we can do to address the things that drive up costs in state and local government. That is why he has introduced comprehensive public pension reform legislation that protects the pensions of current employees while requiring all new hires to take part in a defined contribution, 401k-type plan like those of workers in the private sector. He will also continue pushing for mandate relief that will help reduce spending for local governments and school districts."
Reform
- Excerpt: "Warren has fought for real reform to ensure open and transparent government, and save taxpayers money."

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.
