Why are you running for this office?
The Secretary of State influences voter education, registration and international trade and jobs. The potential can't be maximized with someone in his 16th or 20th year in office. We can be a national leader in the electoral participation, and promote jobs, but we must have fresh vision and energy.
What will be your top three priorities if elected?
1. bring in more jobs, training and retraining
2. more access through vote by mail
3. teach children to be as excited about voting as they are about driving
