The Race for District 3
Hello to one and all, and Welcome!
I am using this Blog to share with you where I stand on issues affecting Nebraskans. I look forward to meeting with you and talking about your ideas and concerns. I invite you all to check in now and again as I share my experiences on the campaign trail.

This past weekend was full of events from Gretna to Bellevue. I was able to take in two great firework shows, eat BBQ for most meals, participate in the Gretna Parade, and more importantly meet many wonderful people in district 3. I look forward to meeting and speaking with as many of you as I can as the the campaign rolls on to the General Election November 4th.

My Platform
As your representative in the State Legislature I will bring my proven work ethic, and common sense to Lincoln. I am willing to listen, and to work to understand the issues at hand.
I believe the strength of our state is in its people. I believe that good government should guarantee to its individuals equality before the law
I believe that government should promote the health, welfare, and safety of the individual and that government’s proper function is to do only those things which individuals cannot do for themselves.
My parents, teachers, and coaches instilled the desire to work hard and take pride in a job well done. 20 years service in the United States Air Force further solidified the importance of dedication and devotion to something larger than myself.
I am a conservative and believe in the importance of individual rights and of limited government.
With these principles, I believe I am the candidate for people who desire a positive and responsive government at the state level.
This morning I am writing to you to share recent experience out on the campaign trail.
The overwhelming response to my walking tour is a sense of relief. For many this is the first time a candidate come to their home and asked them what
their thoughts were. Just this morning I was speaking to a lady from Springfield and she said "
Scotty you give me a reason
to Vote! I am finding the walking and visiting a welcomed relief from the daily grind. There is nothing quite like the feeling of a firm handshake and the parting salutations of "Good Luck" to lift my spirits after a long day. I feel people are more than willing to be a part of the election process if they can feel they are going to have inputs and that their thoughts count.
I will be out walking more this week and on the weekend and look forward to meeting you.
