OTHER INFORMATION
QUESTIONNAIRE
RIGHT TO LIFE
Under what circumstances should abortion be allowed?
1. Rape – Rape should be reported promptly and documented, if so options are available to prevent fertilization in some cases. 2. Extreme physical risk to the mother’s life. 3. The child is diagnosed with severe complications that would result in stillbirth, death occurring shortly after birth or extremely limited quality of life. Zika as an example causes many babies to not develop beyond 3 to 5 months while others die within 2 years. 4. This is a very complicated matter that requires input from medical professional’s to help define what is potentially a severe risk to the mother’s life, conditions that would cause severe complications to a child’s development/life expectancy or options to prevent fertilization/implantation regarding rape victims. 5. My general view is abortion should not be allowed in cases that are within the mothers control but exceptions for situations beyond the mothers control as stated above. My belief extreme cases are between a mother and God not legislation. Legislatures can only do their best to define what these situations are.
Abortion providers, including Planned Parenthood, should not receive funds from federal, state, or local governments (including Title X grants).
Strongly Agree
I support 'aid in dying' laws which legalize assisted suicide and euthanasia.
Strongly Disagree
ECONOMY
What changes, if any, should be made to the tax code?
Did not answer

What government spending would you reduce in order to balance the budget?
Did not answer
iVoterGuide Notes:
The candidate wanted to add this statement, "Government should only spend on essential services and infrastructure. Government entities should not own or operate event venues as an example. Wyoming also invest heavily for education but it is top heavy with no additional benefit to teachers or the children."
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
Under what circumstances can government close churches?
None
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.
D
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?
Did not answer
iVoterGuide Notes:
The candidate asked for this statement to be added, "The United States should defend our nation and territories from direct attack whether it is militarily or cyber-attacks with appropriate force, in many instances this can be done with limited strikes on terror leaders. I believe the involvement of the United States executing full scale military operations in primarily Islamic nations has created many additional threats for our nation. We should also focus on diplomatic efforts rather than military aid in the region I believe this series of questions refers too."
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.
Did not answer
iVoterGuide Notes:

IMMIGRATION
The U.S. should do more to physically secure the southern border.
Strongly Agree
Who should be allowed to immigrate to the U.S. and under what circumstances?
Did not answer
iVoterGuide Notes:
The candidate asked for this statement to be added, "I am not against limited immigration but we must first resolve our current situation before continuing to allow immigration. Afterwards I believe we can accept immigrants that view our way of life favorably, meet criteria proving that they can support themselves with no expense to tax payers and be able to speak English effectively enough to not require special assistance. The immigration requirements even if enforced are currently very weak and must be strengthened."
EDUCATION
I support school choice, including voucher programs, tax credits, charter schools, private schools, and home schools.
Strongly Agree

Did not answer
iVoterGuide Notes:
The candidate asked for this statement to be added, "I do not believe ‘racism’ is a current threat to domestic security however organizations such as Antifia and BLM that sponsor domestic terrorism should be labeled as terrorist organizations. They should be dealt with accordingly not allowed to destroy American cities. As stated earlier in this survey, direct terrorist attacks on America or territories should be dealt with directly with appropriate force."
Reparations should be given to people on the basis of race.
