Why should your constituents elect you? I believe Raleigh is a great place and, when elected, I am committed to sit, listen, and learn. I want to understand what is important to people, no matter what their background, no matter what their experience, no matter what their perspective. I am convinced that, if we work together, we can make thoughtful decisions that are focused on doing the right thing for Raleigh. Right now, I truly believe we need a vision, we need a plan, and we need good leadership and I am committed to bringing that to the City Council.

Why should constituents elect you? I think over the past six years that I’ve been a proven leader in council. I’ve had major accomplishments in terms of bringing together the entrepreneurial community, and working on transit-related issues. So I think that my record stands on its own, and I’m anxious to continue working on things that I haven’t finished yet. Many issues taken up by the state legislature have a direct impact on Raleigh.

Why should your constituents elect you? My constituents should re-elect me based on the fact that I’ve done exactly what I said I would do two years ago. When I knocked on their doors, I would introduce myself, let them know that after 28 years of military service, my wife Deborah and I chose to live in North Raleigh for the quality of life here, that was five years ago, in 2008. I believe that it’s incumbent upon me to preserve and improve upon that quality of life. That quality of life is what attracts a quality workforce, of well-trained, well-educated to Raleigh.
