Who are you? Tell us about yourself.
Chris Rowe — Navy veteran, neighbor, and candidate for the State Senate — is running to hold Dover accountable.
I am Running to "STOP THE SQUEEZE" on Delaware Families. Government overreach and wasteful spending are squeezing hardworking Delawareans through high taxes, failing schools, and rising bills. There is ZERO Accountability in the Democrat Run Governement and all systems are in free fall. Democrat Policies are driving Corporation Large and Small from the State and, as jobs & corporate revenue leave the State, taxes on the individual Delawarean are spiralling out of control.
As Albert Einstien once said, "You can't fix a problem with the same thinking that created it." We have been subject to One Party Rule for over 25 Years now and the people of Delaware are suffering the brunt of the Growing financial burden and poor economic regulations. TIME TO CGANGE THIS THINKING AND "STOP THE SQUEEZE!"
Please list below 3 key messages of your campaign. What are the main points you want voters to remember about your goals for your time in office?
Fix Public Education
Delaware spends among the highest per-pupil figures in the nation and lands near the bottom in outcomes. Adopting Ron Russo's bold plan, we'll shift authority to principals, expand school choice, slash bureaucracy, and demand honest accountability. We have the Fix!Property Tax Relief
17–20%+ property tax hikes landed on New Castle homeowners without a single voter ever casting a ballot on them. We'll impose hard caps, require voter approval for future increases, and shield seniors and fixed-income families from reassessment shocks.Affordable Home Energy
Delaware imports nearly all of its power while RGGI and all-renewables-at-all-costs mandates squeeze family budgets against surging demand. We'll pause extreme mandates, expand reliable in-state generation, and put affordability and reliability first.
What areas of public policy are you personally passionate about?
The Preservation of our Rights under the Delaware and US Constitutions. The current Democrat Delaware AG has created a societal crisis where violent offenders are released and/or never charged. And, where recitivism is at an all-time high in Delaware.
