My Plan to win is Change how it's Done

George Washington warned that parties would divide us. He was right — today, they’ve crippled Congress, driven up debt, and put parties over country.

I am often asked “what can I do, I’m just one person"
Phase I
$25 to get the ball rolling for another 250 years
I’m launching with a bold ask: $25 from 250 Kentuckians in the 6th District.
This isn’t about big donors — it’s about real people who believe in a new kind of campaign.
That $6,250 will fund:
Door-to-door canvassing
Local digital ads (Facebook, Google, Nextdoor).
My time to collect signatures from over 1200 registered voters in the 6th district.
We will then to file a Petition to be placed on the November ballot with the Kentucky Secretary of State in April.
Website, branding, and volunteer tools.
I’m not raising millions. I’m building a movement — one conversation at a time.
Why It Works:
No incumbent means no name recognition to beat
Voters are tired of expensive, empty campaigns.
I’m running the lowest-cost, highest-integrity campaign in the race.
I’ll stand out by being transparent, accessible, and accountable — not loud and flashy.
National Support, Local Roots:
I’m proud to be part of the Independent Candidate Network (ICN).
A coalition of independents running nationwide with a shared mission.
Elect at least 5 independents in 2026 to deny either party a majority.
This isn’t symbolic. It’s strategic.
With just 5, we can force compromise, restore debate, and get Congress working again.
The ICN Provides:
Voter data tools
Coordinated messaging and media training.
Volunteer coordination across districts.
We’re not running alone. We’re building a national movement, starting right here in Kentucky.
This isn’t about money — it’s about momentum.
We don’t need Wall Street. We need Main Street.
