In their own words

Who are you? Tell us about yourself.

Christy is from the Lakewood Littleton, Colorado area. Graduated from Chatfield Senior High School, San Diego State University, and is working on a Phd in natural and functional medicine to be a holistic doctor. She works as an office manager accountant in construction. She enjoys improvement projects, functional design and creating smooth workflow processes.

In 2013 when Obamacare was planning to fine citizens for not buying their health insurance, she knew it was unconstitutional. 2020 and 2025 events lead Christy to stand up for conservative principals and become a leader in the Republican Party. Low taxes, limited government, peace through strength, strong families, individual rights, common sense and opportunity for all- are some principals that everyone can see the value in, not just Republicans.

The 2026 Congressional race to represent Denver is important because all US citizens, who are feeling rising costs due to auto/property crime and paying for illegals; they all deserve better than the status quo we've had too long. No to sharia law, no to freeloaders moochers and looters that communist-socialism creates, no to chem-trails toxic weather modifications, no to forever wars, no to dual-citizens in American government, no to mutilizing innocent childrens' body parts, no to adults who manipulate children to mutilize. Yes to election integrity, the Save America Act, paper ballots, same day voting & hand count. Yes to protecting free speech, bear arms & America First!

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?

Making our cities safe again is my top priority. Issues like crime and soft on crime policies have eroded the safety and well being in our big cities. Businesses get tired of the hassle, they leave, customers leave and neither want to deal with it. I will clean up our cities so crime and lawless behavior is removed and cannot return. This injustice of inner city crime has been the culprit for recent giant rises in auto and property insurances. Without the crime, businesses can once again return, our citizens and visitors can return to enjoy the cafes, restaurants, shopping and cultural experiences of inner city life again.Reducing bloated government waste, fraud and abuse is important to keeping integrity. Programs will be investigated to see if they are truly helping to become self sufficient or hurting people by creating dependency.I will create incentives for businesses to establish, grow and flourish. This will create jobs and further enhance our US economy.

What areas of public policy are you personally passionate about?

Health, Education, Energy, Environment, Labor, Natural Resources, Nutrition, Small Business
