I care about my farmer, my veteran, my police officer, my firefighter, as much as I care about my mom or my dad. I care about everybody, and I fight for them through legislation and advocacy in everything I do. I ran my campaign on the cost of things and on public safety. So I outperformed the top of the ticket by a good percentage point. I don't know what it was. 2, 3, 4, 5, something. I outperformed almost all candidates around the state because I had enough money to run ads on those. (31:18–31:28)
