Has never taken one penny from anyone in campaigns

I have never taken one penny from anyone to run for political office. I do this to show voters that this is their democracy, that they too can run for office. At least I am one candidate who will not be influenced by campaign contributions, since I don't take any campaign contributions.

We have serious issues in Rhode Island when it comes to our election process. One of these is to remove the 117 year old voters who live in the Old Burial ground from the Providence voting list.
