In Their Words

What they have said, on the record

“I am a lifelong Buckeye, a businessman and a father who believes in the grit and potential of Southern Ohio. Before serving in Congress, I spent time in the private sector running a family-owned business, where I learned firsthand how government overreach and rising costs impact everyday families.”
Meet Ohio 2nd District Republican primary candidates: David Taylor and Bob CarrApr 3, 2026 · Self-published · WVXU · source
“While we may not agree on every policy, I believe most of us want the same things: safe neighborhoods, good-paying jobs and a government that works efficiently without intruding on our daily lives. My door is always open to anyone in the district, regardless of their political leanings, because my job is to represent every constituent.”
Meet Ohio 2nd District Republican primary candidates: David Taylor and Bob CarrApr 3, 2026 · Self-published · WVXU · source
“Representation starts with showing up. I've spent my time traveling from the outskirts of Cincinnati to the West Virginia border because you can't understand a community's needs from a desk in D.C.”
Meet Ohio 2nd District Republican primary candidates: David Taylor and Bob CarrApr 3, 2026 · Self-published · WVXU · source
“The most consistent concern I hear, whether I'm in Clermont County or Washington County, is the rising cost of essentials like groceries and energy. People feel like they are working harder just to stay in place.”
Meet Ohio 2nd District Republican primary candidates: David Taylor and Bob CarrApr 3, 2026 · Self-published · WVXU · source
“My mission has always been to ensure that Southern Ohio has a seat at the table where real decisions are made. We've made progress in bringing common-sense solutions to Washington, but there is more work to do to lower the cost of living and protect our local industries.”
