Phil Collins participated in Ballotpedia's candidate survey on May 16, 2018. The survey questions appear in bold, and Phil Collins's responses follow below.[2]

What would be your top three priorities, if elected?

1. Ask the county commission to cut my salary from $131,000 to $75,000, per year. 2. Ask the county commission to stop giving money to the Raiders. I like football, but I think that no government should give money to a corporation. 3. If the commission does #2, above, I'll ask them to use the savings to cut the property tax levy, increase education spending, and increase highway construction spending.[3][4]

What areas of public policy are you personally passionate about? Why?

Cutting tax rates and spending and encouraging police officers to cooperate with ICE.Cite error: Invalid <ref> tag; invalid names, e.g. too many[4]

Who do you look up to? Whose example would you like to follow and why?

Former Congressman Ron Paul because he voted for tax cuts and spending cuts.[4]
Is there a book, essay, film, or something else that best describes your political philosophy?

What characteristics or principles are most important for an elected official?

What qualities do you possess that would make you a successful officeholder?
I think that I'm good at math and have a good memory for numbers. That would help me, if I'm a county treasurer.[4]

Ensuring that property tax is collected and that the money is spent according to the wishes of the county commission.[4]
What legacy would you like to leave?

The Watergate hearings.[4]
What was your very first job? How long did you have it?
Navy I served for 21 years, 11 on active duty and 10 in the reserves.[4]
What happened on your most awkward date?
We had lunch. When we were done eating, she said that she was going to the restroom. She never came back to the table. I called her and left an answering machine message. After that, she never called me.[4]

Christmas, because that's when a lot of people go to church and see their relatives.[4]

Investing money[4]
Do you believe that it’s beneficial for holders of this office to have previous experience in government or politics?

What kind of skills or expertise do you believe would be the most helpful for the holders of this office to possess?
Math skills and a good memory for numbers[4]
