How do you believe precinct chairs should be involved in elections? (election judge, clerk, none?)

Yes, in a support role such as judge or clerk.

Do you like the Steering Committee style of leadership currently in place or that of just a county chairman?

Steering Committee

Do you beieve that the county chair/precinct chairs should actively participate in at least one committee?

Yes, grass roots involvement is a key to our success.

Should the county GOP chair be involved with fundraising? Why or why not?

Yes. Frankly we should all be involved with fundraising.

Should party primaries be "open" or "closed" & why?

Closed. Only Republicans should vote in Republicam primaries, and Democrats in Democrat primaries.

Should the GOP County Chair be selected by the elected County Executive Committee, or in the Open primaries where Democrats can cross over for more moderate candidates?

County Executive Committee

There's discussion about making major revisions to the RPT Platform. Please describe the nature of any major changes you support.

I have not seen these revisions.

What's your position on Texas House Speaker Dade Phelan?

He is too conciliatory, in my opinion.

Would you support legislative action to establish a salary framework (possibly related to the Gov. salary) for all taxpayer funded employees with a stipulation that elected officials be required to get voter approval to exceed that framework for their own salaries?

Yes

Do you support or oppose social programs in our schools (like C-Scope, Common Core, CRT, International Baccalaureate, SEL, etc.)? Why or why not?

Oppose. Schools should teach "Reading, writing, and arithmetic", and not act as socialist indoctrination camps.

Is there anything in your background of an embarrassing nature that should be explained before your election? Arrests/Convictions? Bankruptcys?

Real Estate bankruptcy in the 1990's.?

Do you agree with precinct chairs involvement in republican primaries? Why or why not?

Yes. To get out the vote! There is too much voter apathy in our party.

Should the county GOP chair be involved in any other political organizations, including PAC's, while serving a term as the chairman? Why or why not?

Probably not, so as to avoid any perceived conflict of interest.

At what point should the "right to life" or "personhood" be granted to new human beings (e.g., at conception, sign of heartbeat, 3 months of pregnancy, birth, 5 days old, etc)? What action, if any, will you take to reflect this in law?

This is a dreadful and gut-wrenching subject that is tearing at the fabric of our society. Personally, I feel sign of heartbeat creates "personhood".

What, if anything, should be done to protect our borders from illegal immigration?

Close the border, and deport illegal aliens. (like we used too...)

What does being a conservative mean to you?

Supporting and defending America, our way of life, our Faith, our communititees and families, and being a good citizen.

List 3 changes that should be made to how elections are conducted in Montgomery County.

I think overall, our election department runs a pretty tight ship, perhaps increase the number of early voting locations?

Do you support current RPT chair Matt Rinaldi in full and if not, what do you disagree with?

In full.
