Who are you? Tell us about yourself.

I am Jerry Timbs. I'm retired. What I stand for and running on is lowering taxes, getting homeless people off the streets. Helping our elderly and veterans. Getting gang's off the streets, lowering crime. Its time to get families above the poverty line. I'm not a politician but politicians are not holding up their end of the deal.

It's time for an update on politicians. It's time to put a regular everyday guy in office that lives an everyday normal life and knows what everyday people go through.

So if you would like real change then I ask for your vote.

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?

Taking care of our elderly and our veterans. Back our First Responders. It's time we all come together instead of having politicians tear us apart.Putting Families First. Getting families out of poverty. It's time we focus on that. Better paying jobs. Having affordable housing so people can afford to live and pay rent or mortgages. Lower taxes this is not time for taxes to be raised but yet State and counties are doing just that. It's time to bring back small towns that are disappearing.Getting homeless off the streets. I understand some are there by choice. Some sleep in their cars. But if they can be helped then it's time we have them. Some are there by no fault of their own, and they just need a helping hand in this time we have them.
