Campaign websiteBay's campaign website stated the following:“Too often, politics is treated like theater. But a seat on the Executive Council isn't a soapbox—it’s a whiteboard. I’m running to approach state governance like a scientist: diagnosing waste, auditing every contract with precision, and ensuring our tax dollars actually deliver for the people of New Hampshire.”Protecting:Your Wallet.Your Schools.Your Rights.The New Hampshire Executive Council is our state’s most powerful oversight body. It holds the checkbook for our government, responsible for approving or denying every contract over $10,000, confirming judicial appointments, and shaping our local infrastructure. With billions of taxpayer dollars on the line, we need an uncorruptible firewall who answers only to our neighbors and never to well-connected lobbyists, corporate special interests, or petty politics.Solutions Over SpectacleLuz will use scientific precision to evaluate state spending, lower family costs, and safeguard our fundamental rights – never losing sight of the people the decisions are meant to serve.The Pragmatic Auditor:Fiscal EfficiencyLuz will review state and federal contracts with care. She will treat every line item with diagnostic scrutiny—identifying waste and duplication, calling out inefficiencies, and ensuring that our hard-earned tax dollars are spent effectively, transparently, and with integrity.Protecting Families & FreedomsFamilies deserve lower costs, high-quality services, and the personal freedom and security to live as they wish. On the Executive Council, Luz will stand as a firewall for reproductive freedom. She will ensure that judicial nominees and state health contracts respect the personal privacy, safety, and rights of every Granite Stater.Investing in Our Communities & SchoolsStrong communities rely on strong foundations. Luz is committed to ensuring our public schools are fully supported and that state resources are targeted toward improving our infrastructure, transportation, and local economy. Whether in the North Country, the White Mountains, the Lakes Region, or the Seacoast, she will make sure state decisions prioritize the long-term well-being of our towns, each of which have their own character and needs.— Luz Bay's campaign website (September 1, 2026)Note: This text is quoted verbatim from the original source.
