In Their Words
What they have said, on the record
““I will look forward to when the election is over” [...] “The reality is, I’m for sure winning the primary, it’s a matter of whether we win outright or move onto the general.””
““I’m cautiously optimistic” [...] “We called 300,000 voters on election day … and it was mostly people who had not turned in ballots and were taking them to vote centers. The super majority of them were voting for me, so we’ll see.””
““With statewide budget constraints and funding uncertainties at the federal level, I voted against pay raises for myself and my colleagues. We have a responsibility to be fiscally responsible, prioritizing the needs of those we serve and the employees who deliver necessary programs,””
