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

Precinct chairs should work with county elections administration to ensure election codes are being followed.

The Precinct Chair should be present at all elections held with the respective precinct, and if possible, be the election judge.

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

Yes, the Steering Committee is the correct style, so the power does not reside with one individual.

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

Yes. The respective chair needs to be engaged in a committee, so they have ownership in representing their precinct. Again if only a few are involved in committees, the county is not truely represented. 

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

The County GOP chair should be involved in fundraising for the GOP. If, in a general election, the GOP candidate needs fundraising support, then the County Chair should be involved.

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

Closed. Non members of a Party should not be allowed to participate in the selection process of Party candidates.

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?

The GOP County Chair should be elected by the County Executive Committee.

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?

I do not support social programs in tax funded schools. 

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

No.

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

Yes, precint chairs are representatives of the RTP and should be involved in primaries.

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?

The County GOP Chair should represent the Republican Party in Montgomery County. If they are involved in other political organizations, including PACs, representing the role of county chair, this must be disclosed and should not be allowed.

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?

Right to Life begins at conception. I will support candidates that ban abortions in Texas and create laws the enforce legal penalties for performing abortions in Texas.

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

Enforce the US Constitution Article 4 Section 4-declared invasion.

Demand Federal and State agencies enforce current immigration laws.
