1. NUMBER-ONE CAMPAIGN FOCUS: I would like to See El Paso be more business friendly so that we can have an idustrial base like we used to have.

2. WHAT SETS YOU APART FROM YOUR OPPONENTS? I am more Socially and Fiscally Conservative and my decisions will be more biblicaly based on common sense.

3. RELEVANT EXPERIENCE THAT QUALIFIES YOU FOR THE POSITION YOU SEEK: I have been petioning city council off and on for the last 15 years. From issues ranging from parking , to regulating the strip clubs. I have spent a lot of time at the podium in City counsel chambers, I think its about time to try out the city counsel seat.

4. IF YOU HAD THE CHANCE TO REVOKE ONE ORDINANCE IN EL PASO IMMEDIATELY UPON TAKING OFFICE, WHICH ONE WOULD IT BE? The city counsel decision to change the voting locations was a bad one. I was a election judge for precint 17 . The elederly in the retirement homes where voting locations were ,will be disenfranchised. Voter confusion, as to where to vote, will be a major issue. This needs to be reversed.

6. IN WHAT WAYS IS EL PASO ON THE RIGHT TRACK, AND IN WHAT WAYS DOES IT NEED TO CHANGE COURSE? El Paso has a low crime rate thanks mostly to Project Blockade and the border fence.

That was a definite improvement. But not much else has gone well. The economy being down is bad , but losing businesses is worse. We need to do a better job of attracting and retaining businesses.

7. IF ELECTED, HOW WILL YOU BALANCE THE NEEDS OF FAMILY, YOUR CAREER AND YOUR OFFICE?The apartment business provides some free time. And since the city counsel office is a part time job, whats there not to like.
