OTHER INFORMATION
QUESTIONNAIRE
RIGHT TO LIFE
Under what circumstances should abortion be allowed?
Should always be the mother's choice. If the mother's life is at risk and/or she is incapacitated and cannot speak it should always be up to her spouse/significant other, or family member and never up to the doctor or the staff to make such an important decision. I believe that a mother if her life is in danger she will always put her child's needs ahead of her own. However, the choice ultimately rests with the woman.
Abortion providers, including Planned Parenthood, should not receive funds from federal, state, or local governments (including Title X grants).
Strongly Agree
Taxpayers shouldn't be required to contribute their taxes to causes that conflict with their personal, moral or ethical or religious beliefs, such as those supported by Planned Parenthood.
I support 'aid in dying' laws which legalize assisted suicide and euthanasia.
Strongly Agree
If a person is terminally ill and decides to end their life with dignity they should be free to do so without interference from anyone and if a doctor is available to legally facilitate that and provide assistance there shouldn't be a problem.
ECONOMY
What changes, if any, should be made to the tax code?
get rid of the 87000 IRS agents, and abolish the IRS. Because WE THE PEOPLE do not approve of what/where our taxes go to.
What government spending would you reduce in order to balance the budget?
Build the wall so we don't have to "support" all these illegal aliens that are coming over. It is unconstitutional to fund a government that refuses to carry out its constitutional duty and its legal duty to secure the border and enforce the law. Why do we provide illegal aliens that are coming over the border in drones’ free healthcare, food stamps, money, cell phones, places to live, but we don't give these things to our own citizens? Our veterans who served in our country so we could be free, on the streets homeless. Quit sending billions of dollars to foreign countries. Why are they sending all that money to them and making us pay for it? Also, the war in Ukraine.
Taxpayer-funded public education should be guaranteed through college.
Strongly Disagree
RELIGIOUS LIBERTY
Individuals and businesses should be required to provide services even if it would violate their moral and/or religious beliefs.
Strongly Disagree
No response needed
Under what circumstances can government close churches?
Never. Even our founding fathers had prayer in their meetings. The First Continental Congress is an inspiring example of what prayer can do; a fraternal unity was forged among a religiously diverse congress after they prayed together. So for those who believe in the separation of church and state that is complete utter nonsense this should be no such thing.
HEALTHCARE
What most closely matches your view on healthcare: A) Healthcare for all should be guaranteed and funded by the government with no private healthcare option. (includes "universal healthcare," "medicare for all," etc.) B) Healthcare insurance funded by the government should be available for all who want it, along with private healthcare options. C) Medicaid and Medicare should remain available, but no other taxpayer-funded programs are necessary. D)Tax-payer funded health care should be abolished in all forms, and Medicaid and Medicare should be de-funded.
B. But the "government funded" is taxpayers funded insurance.
Under what circumstances (if any) should a government, school, or employer be allowed to require vaccinations?
None
NATIONAL SECURITY
What should the United States do to help eradicate the threat of Islamic terrorism?
We need to strengthen our military, and abolish the WOKE agenda in our military. Build up the moral of our military, We need to have a strong military presence, we need to have secure borders and we need to reestablish the vetting measures that we used to have by not admitting just anybody into our country.
I support the Boycott, Divestment, Sanctions (BDS) movement to pressure Israel to withdraw from occupied territories, remove the separation barrier in the West Bank, allow full equality for Arab-Palestinian citizens of Israel, and promote the rights of Palestinian refugees.
Strongly Disagree
IMMIGRATION
The U.S. should do more to physically secure the southern border.
Strongly Agree
Secure the borders and label the Cartel terrorists.
Who should be allowed to immigrate to the U.S. and under what circumstances?
People who are politically persecuted.
EDUCATION
I support school choice, including voucher programs, tax credits, charter schools, private schools, and home schools.
Strongly Agree
Parents deserve the right to choose where their children receive their education. Students should not be forced to learn critical race theory, which teaches students to judge based on race against the wishes of their parents. In Nevada we are 49th actually we are now 50th in the nation. This is huge problem. Students are attacking teachers and bus drivers. Restorative justice needs to be abolished. Clark County School District needs to be broken up.
VALUES
Judeo-Christian values established a framework of morality which is necessary for our system of limited government.
Strongly Agree
Regardless of whether we embraced the bible's moral authority or not, we are all fundamentally one country under God who has infused Christian principles into various nations and philosophies. We also all except and adhere to the laws of contemporary western society.
I support adding gender identity as a specially protected class in non-discrimination laws.
Strongly Disagree
I do not. God only created 2 genders Male and Female.
Marriage is a God-ordained, sacred and legal union of one man and one woman. No government has the authority to alter this definition
Strongly Agree
Thats It.
I agree with Critical Race Theory (CRT) which asserts that the institutions in the United States are fundamentally racist.
Strongly Disagree
Briefly describe your spiritual beliefs and values.
Jesus Christ is my Lord and Savior. I walk by faith every single day I am a living miracle and it's because of him that I am alive. I'm a Constitutional Conservative.
ELECTIONS AND VOTING
People should be able to vote without photo identification.
Strongly Agree
Common sense, We need photo ID verification for everything.
iVoterGuide Notes:
The candidate asked to have a correction added regarding this question: "she actually STRONGLY DISAGREES with this question."
What laws would you propose to change present voting practices?
We need to get rid of mail-in ballots and the Dominion voting machines. Have an Election Day declared a holiday so that everyone can vote on that day. No early voting.
EQUALITY
Is racism a threat to domestic security in the United States? Why or why not?
The WOKE AGENDA is what is the threat.
Reparations should be given to people on the basis of race.
Strongly Disagree
Reparations should not be given to people at all. Just because they are the descendants does not qualify anyone.
ENERGY & ENVIRONMENT
Which comes closest to your view? A) Stricter environmental laws and regulations cost too many jobs and hurt the economy. B) Stricter environmental laws and regulations are worth the cost.
A
I support the use of hydraulic fracking to extract oil and natural gas resources.
Strongly Agree
Absolutely support this. Fracking gives access to oil and gas reserves which will create more jobs.
ABOUT YOU
What do you think is the general purpose of government?
The best way to sum it up is, The Preamble- To form a more perfect union; establish justice; insure domestic tranquility; provide for the common defense; promote the general welfare; secure the blessings of liberty now and in the future; why try to explain it any other way, We The People. I am a Constitutional Conservative.

Have you ever been convicted of a felony or been penalized in either civil or criminal court for sexual misconduct? If so, please explain.
No
What else would you like voters to know about you, including your legislative priorities?
I'm for Americans first, school freedom, lower taxes. This defund the police has caused a national crime wave. I want to bring back Law and Order and hold these District Attorneys that are too soft on crime accountable. The Democrats have failed us, with the super size taxes, Crime is out of control. Sitting on the sidelines was no longer an options that is why I got into this race.
CRIMINAL JUSTICE & PUBLIC SAFETY
Police officers should be personally immune from prosecution for conduct consistent with departmental policy (qualified immunity) while on duty.
Strongly Agree
Absolutely, need this.
I support redirecting funds from police departments to mental health and community programs.
Strongly Disagree
No. I am fed up with the defund the police movement. We need to restore law and order and support our law enforcement.
2ND AMENDMENT
What restrictions on gun ownership are needed to protect public safety?
None.
Victims of gun violence should be able to sue firearms dealers and manufacturers.
Strongly Disagree
So if a victim of a drunk driver is hit by an a car do we sue the car manufacturer?
