| Candidate’s additional comments | I would prefer to have the opportunity to add a comment to answers. There are some issues that require more clarification. Nothing is cut and dried, black and white. | I am a retired Peace Officer of 28 years, retiring as a Chief of Police and have seen the misuses of power at every level of government and the degradation of society. I have found two documents that I base all of my decisions on; The Bible and the US Constitution as written. I will use those two documents to determine any vote I am asked to make to the best of my ability. |
