17. health care, eh?

She's a tricky one, that Nancy. This stuff of talking to voters about health care was a devious plot! Why didn't she focus on Cheetolini and his rallies, since the news and Cheetolini said the midterms were about him?

What were the biggest issues you focused on in your campaign?

Access to health care. I knocked over 6,500 doors, and that was the most common theme I found at the doors from voters. Another issue that came up was our education system, K-12 and higher ed, and then also property taxes. People are afraid to be thrown out on the street, to lose their homes because the property taxes continue to increase.
