In Carroll 8, we have an unusual situation where both candidates have served in the House. A comparison of voting records will help voters decide who best represents them.

While serving as Representative for Belknap 4, Richard Stuart voted to impose a 5% income tax on NH residents. (2010-HB642). In contrast, I voted against establishing an income tax. (2017-HB415).

Governor Sununu is proud of the business tax cuts propelling the growth of the NH economy. August 2018 figures show the unemployment rate in Carroll County has dropped to 2.3% – the second lowest in NH. Supporting this, I voted to reduce the rate of the business profits tax and the business enterprise tax (2017-HB517) but Richard Stuart voted against business tax cuts (2009-HB533).
Infrastructure in our cities and towns needs attention. I proudly voted to send $36 million dollars to cities and towns for road and bridge aid (2017-SB38) and $20 million dollars for red-listed bridges (2018-HB1817) whereas Richard Stuart voted against sending $25 million dollars to NH cities and towns (2010-HB1274).

Rising health insurance costs are a serious problem. I voted for reauthorizing Medicaid Expansion as managed care, reducing costs by $13 million dollars. (2018-SB313). The NH Insurance Department projects a 6.75% reduction in health insurance premiums in 2019 due to this. Richard Stuart voted against Medicaid managed care. (2010-SB343)

Remembering my residency in New York, when I had a new baby to support but union dues were taken from my paycheck without my consent, I voted for Right to Work (2017-SB11) whereas Richard Stuart voted against Right to Work (2010-HB1645).

Respecting the beliefs of parents, I voted for parental notification about objectionable course material. (2017-HB103) whereas my opponent did not (2010-HB1453). Having homeschooled my children through high school at no cost to the taxpayers, I voted to keep our current homeschooling law (2018-HB1263). Richard Stuart was one of 34 Representatives who voted to restrict homeschooling (2010-HB368).

I ask all voters to examine our records and make an informed choice in November. After doing so, I ask for your vote.
