“I was a proud candidate for the Wayne Trace School Board in the General Election on November 5, 2019. Education has always been a top priority for myself and my family and is a main issue that I intend to fight for in this campaign. Providing a world class education in every zip code in our district and making all rural communities able to have internet that is accessible, as well as functional. With the pandemic that has affected our country, it is very important to have this access for learning purposes for our youth and their families. One of my main focuses if elected as your new Ohio State Representative for the 82nd District would be to make sure that our federal and local governments are supporting high quality K-12 schools across America and making higher education affordable and accessible. Having a substantial education should be a top priority for the future of our youth and our country, as well as other important topics that need to be addressed in our country and community.
“Another issue that would be great to appreciate happen in the 82nd District and the State of Ohio, would be Raising wages and promoting worker’s rights. Being in the medical field myself, I have been on the front lines during this pandemic. With this knowledge essential workers and their families should be compensated for their heroism. It is unfortunate that so many Americans have been placed on unemployment during this pandemic, but compensating the unemployed more than our front line workers is unjust. This is an issue that has been very hard to withstand in our country. With this being said, it is very important to have the right voice in Columbus to make this happen. I believe in what I stand for and promise to be that voice for the 82nd District and the state of Ohio.
“The hate that is among Americans right now in our country needs to be addressed. Whether Democrat, Republican or other political affiliations, we need to be able to work together and stop the hatred that is in our country. I support the second amendment and fully believe that we as Americans have the right to bear arms, but also believe that they should be placed in the right hands.
“I am a Christian woman and believe in the freedom of religion. Who are we to judge one’s faith? I would also work hard to bring prayer back into our schools where it should have never left.
“I support our men in uniform and have great respect for our police. My grandfather was the police chief in Antwerp, Ohio for many years and he was my hero. My brother-in-law gave his life fighting for this great country.
“I would be honored to be your next Ohio State Representative of the 82nd District and promise to fight for our rights and our communities.
“I am write-in candidate for the Ohio State Representative 82nd District and I look forward to your support on November 3, 2020.
“Please help me in bringing a positive voice, that will full heartedly support our district, by voting for me in November. Be sure to fill in the bubble and write in my name. I am running against Craig Riedel.”
