Paul's website highlighted the following campaign themes:^[8]

Constitutional Government

Excerpt: "We must uphold the Constitution in our schools, our gun stores, our hospitals, our courthouses and our statehouse. This is freedom of the people by the people and it is us, the grassroots, who will defend liberty."

Pro-Life and Sanctity of Marriage

Excerpt: "I am a Pro-Life conservative who will defend the rights of the unborn. I believe in the sanctity of traditional marriage (as defined by one man and one woman)."

Illegal Immigration

Excerpt: "We must ensure our law enforcement have the tools they need to do the job safely. We must stop the state benefits to those who have broken the law. We are a nation governed by laws and it is time to step-up and enforce the law regarding illegal immigration. "

Property Tax Relief

Excerpt: "We need these taxes to be low, fair and transparent. We need to hold these levels of government accountable for spending YOUR money. We also need a reduction in the appraisal cap to provide relief for families in District 129."

Education

Excerpt: "Education is critical to raising a generation that is better off than our own. We need to keep quality teachers and stop rewarding schools that fail. We need curriculum that correctly teaches our history and not allow liberal anti-American curriculum to be forced upon our children. Keeping local control of our schools is one of the most important thing we can do and this includes the freedom of school choice."

Scorecards

Ascorecard evaluates a legislator’s voting record. Its purpose is to inform voters about the legislator’s political positions. Because scorecards have varying purposes and methodologies, each report should be considered on its own merits. For example, an advocacy group’s scorecard may assess a legislator’s voting record on one issue while a state newspaper’s scorecard may evaluate the voting record in its entirety.

Ballotpedia is in the process of developing an encyclopedic list of published scorecards. Some states have a limited number of available scorecards or scorecards produced only by select groups. It is Ballotpedia’s goal to incorporate all available scorecards regardless of ideology or number.
