About the Candidate
I’m no politician—never wanted to be. My happy place has always been as a wife, mom to five kids, and “Lovie” to six grandkids, the light of my world. Before retiring I enjoyed a career as a professional photographer and entrepreneur. I’ve been a member of your community for over 20 years. It has always been said of me that: “She’s really nice, but don’t mess with anyone she cares about.” That is pretty much anyone. Even as a kid I stood up to bullies and if you didn’t have a friend, I would introduce you to mine. The instinct to fight to protect others is ingrained. In 2015 when a company I invested in filed bankruptcy, just months after receiving a billion-dollar investment from Blackrock, I fought back and won a settlement for the shareholders of the company. That never happens. During Covid I helped people fight against medical kidnapping and forced masking and vaccinations. When I discovered security issues with elections in Texas I led the efforts to push for—and win—the toughest statewide hand count audit in recent Texas history. I’ve fought through the courts to hold officials and voting system companies accountable for breaking election laws and withholding election data.

Solid Christian constitutional conservative that uncovered significant security vulnerabilities in Texas elections, but is not a politician.

For which Texas House District are you a candidate?
State Representative District 3
What are the 3 main reasons you're running for this office and what are 3 main goals you hope to accomplish?
The most important reason I am running is because God asked me to. I have been praying since 2020 that God would rise up His people to take every position of leadership, power, representation, trust and influence. He kept saying to me: Why not you? The only answer when God asks you to do something is: ...
How many terms do you plan to serve?
2 terms, 4 years total.
This is a Republican primary race. Do you promise, if elected, to abide by the RPT platform?
Yes, I promise to abide by the RPT Platform.
If not, please enumerate what problems you have with the RPT Platform. https://texasgop.org/platform/
I have no problems with the RPT Platform.
Did you support Dustin Burrows as Speaker of the Texas House?
No
What issues are your personal, do-or-die priorities for the next legislative session?
In addition to the 3 I mentioned in the previous question about my 3 main goals: 1) Currently, there are almost no penalties for government officials who violate election laws intended to secure our elections. Rember "paper-gate" in the 2024 general election in Harris County where the election ...
What is your view regarding reducing or eliminating property taxes in favor of increased sales taxes and increased user fees? Will you carry legislation in support of the latter?
I have already spoken about my views on property taxes in the previous question about my 3 main goals, but I will elaborate a bit by saying that moving to a sales tax-based income generating system would force counties to compete with each other to provide government services at lower costs, streamlining ...
What were your thoughts about Speaker Burrows appointing all Democrats as Vice Chairs?
It was a slap in the face to the People of Texas who overwhelmingly elected Republican's to represent us. Democrats should have a minority seat at the table as members of committees because they have people to represent too, but the majority party should have all positions of power. Burrows sold our political power ...
Will you submit a bill eliminating the ability of a member of the Texas Legislature to change their vote after the official vote is recorded?
Yes
The House Speaker has too much power (fact). Describe the rule changes needed to distribute some of that power & how that can be accomplished.
Seriously, someone needs to go into the archives and find the house rules before the 1960s and we need to return to those standards. In the past, no one wanted to be the speaker because it was extra responsibility with no extra benefits. The speaker's role is to moderate and move the legislative process ...
What is your opinion of officials who promote "who they know" candidates to run for elected positions because of association while also backing them financially? The ol', "I'll rub your back if you rub mine" system?
The entire king making, endorsement and money changing process is a sham and violation of the people's political power. It only serves to keep elitists and establishment candidates in power. I wish the people were not so susceptible to this scam. If you want to impress me, show me an endorsement from someone ...
What's your position on property taxes? Can they realistically be eliminated and if so, how?
Yes, they can be eliminated. Florida is currently leading the way to eliminating property taxes, Texas needs to step up and start leading the way to Liberty. I'm tired of being behind Florida. This can be done by creating a Texas Constitution amendment declaring property taxes unconstitutional and giving a set ...
Please describe your plan for balancing the Texas budget. What budget items need to be cut and what taxes and fees need to be increased?
every agency that does not fulfill an expressed Constitutional mandate. Each one must be investigated to determine if it is Constitutional and if it is, could it be merged into a different federal agency making the Texas government more efficient. In addition to that, here are 3 programs I would immediately target as ...
Do you support or oppose requiring schools, public health departments or any medical personnel to secure consent from a parent or legal guardian before prescribing, dispensing or administering contraceptive drugs or devices to a minor?
Support
List anyone you have lobbied for or represented at any governmental agency during the past five years.
Everyone who has ever spoken to a government agent is a lobbyist to some degree. I am not a professional lobbyist, but I have certainly advocated for changes in government. I have spoken extensively at commissioner's court, for legislative committees and privately with various officials for the restoration ...
Please describe your views on gambling as a funding source for education and other budget items, and whether gambling should be expanded or reduced along with the reasons supporting your viewpoint.
Wasn't the Texas Lottery sold to us as a way to fund education in Texas? How has that worked out for us? What happens to all that money? Why are our property taxes still so high? Gambling is a hidden tax on the poor, and it brings in crime and corruption everywhere it goes. I lived in Louisiana when the river boat ...
Would you actively support legislation to reign in rogue Texas DA's?
Yes
Do you support the 10 Commandments being displayed in all of our public schools' classrooms?
Yes
What is the role of public education as it relates to parental rights?
The Texas Constitution, Article 7, is very clear on the role of government in education: "A general diffusion of knowledge being essential to the preservation of the liberties and rights of the people, it shall be the duty of the Legislature of the State to establish and make suitable provision for the support and ...
Please describe under what specific circumstances governmental rights or interests should override parental rights or interests in regard to the welfare of children.
Government has no rights, only duties, responsibilities and limited grants of authority to act on our behalf. Please read that again, multiple times. Article 1 Section 19 of the Texas Constitution declares that the only way our life, liberty, property, privileges (rights), or immunities can be in any manner disfranchised ...
Did you vote for/support the Republican Caucus nominee for Speaker of the Texas House on January 14th, 2025?
Yes
How should the Texas House Speaker be elected? Why?
Constitutionally, the speaker is chosen by majority vote of the representatives that make up the Texas House. In addition to that, if you are seeking the nomination of a political party to be their chosen candidate in the general election, you are pledging to abide by that party's platform, priorities and rules; so ...
If you were able to fix how public education was funded, how would you do it and why?
We need to move away from the property tax system and move to a sales tax system for the reasons outlined extensively above.
What can you do as AG to prevent Representatives like Rep Wu from promoting and donating to radical groups that promote violence in our cities?
Is this just a question for AG? I'll answer anyway. There is a reason that you cannot yell FIRE! in a crowded building when there is no fire or call for violence against others. Our society has long eliminated these types of things from the protection of free speech because of the potential to cause harm. Why should any ...
Do you support or oppose implementing term limits for all elective offices?
Support
If you supported the Democrat Empowerment Act of 2025 (House Rules Resolution 4 (HR4)), why did you ban Republicans from serving as Vice Chairs, while elevating the budgets and authority of Democratic Vice Chairs?
I was not in power to vote for or against HR4, but if I was, I would have voted against it.
If in the Texas Legislative session you are given the opportunity to allow "We the People" to vote on an issue in an election rather than our Representatives, would you encourage/push for that? (e.g. The School Choice Bill)
Yes
What have you done or will you do to prevent or extract Common Core, CRT, SEL and IB from our schools' systems?
I will support or pass bills to eliminate these harmful indoctrinations of our children. We also need to do a better job of educating parents on the dangers of these ideologies so they can fight back at a local level. I will use my platform to help foster that education.
Is there anything in your background of an embarrassing nature that should be explained before your election? (e.g., Arrests/Convictions? Bankruptcies?)
I have no arrests much less convictions, but I did have to file bankruptcy once. In 2005 I opened a small business that provided haircuts and birthday parties for little girls. A year after opening the business the department of cosmetology came in and threatened to fine me an excessive amount of money if I didn't ...
