 SECTION III

 

In this section, we are seeking responses that reflect the four ratings criteria: involvement, effectiveness, character, and knowledge.  These are defined as follows:

 

 

 

 

 

 

1.      In a page or less, why are you running for this office?  (Note: the interview committee will be given a copy of this statement before your interview; at the beginning of your interview you will have the opportunity to expand on this statement in any way you wish.)

 

I am running to to give like minded people a place to put their vote.  I am also running to help promote the Libertarian party.  I am not running an active campaign.

 


 

2.      Describe your most important personal characteristics or traits as they relate to the office you seek.

 

Honesty and integrity

 

3.      Please describe in sufficient detail, one to three accomplishments or contributions of which you are most proud.  These examples should illustrate effective skills and capabilities you think apply to the office you are seeking.  These accomplishments may have occurred at any time in your personal, professional, or public life. 

 

     


 

4.      Please list or describe your current and past activities in the community in which you have acquired skills that relate to the office you seek.  Include your role in the activity and the year(s) in which you were involved.  Involvement consists of many areas such as family, neighborhood, community, employment, or public life.

 

     

 

 

  1. Please describe the duties of the office you seek.  Which are the most important duties and why?

 

Ideallly, the state legislature should be a part time duty, performed by citizen candidates, not professional politicians.  It should be more like jury duty, where we assume that everyone is qualified/obligated to serve.
