4. No. I’m not familiar with the candidates and don’t generally vote in local elections.

5. Unsure. It’s too soon to say whether I’ll go to the polls; I’ll decide closer to the election.

Are you satisfied with the level of transparency in your local city government and school district administration?

You voted:

1. Yes. Local cities and school districts do a good job making information available.

4. No. It’s not always easy to discern how the taxpayers’ money is being spent.

5. Unsure. Transparency is difficult to measure; it’s hard to know what level is appropriate.

Do you agree with President Trump that planned investigations by House Democrats constitute “presidential harassment”?

You voted:

1. Yes. The Democratic majority in the House is just trying score political points.

2. Yes. Democrats should be legislating, rather than trying to bring Trump down.

1. Yes. Both sides are far apart, and nobody seems truly interested in compromise.

2. Yes. If funding can be identified to build it, Trump is right to make it happen.

3. No. There are far better ways to spend $7 billion to improve national security.

4. No. The border situation isn’t suddenly a national emergency. This is just a ploy.

5. Unsure. It’s hard to say whether the wall is the answer to improving border security.

Do you think the government shutdown will have an impact on the 2020 presidential election?

You voted:

1. Yes. The longer it continues, the more likely it will be a major campaign issue.

2. Yes. Both parties will point the finger of blame, but voters will make the call.

3. No. The election is a long way off. Other issues will rise to the top by then.

4. No. Both parties may try to use it to their advantage, but voters will be tired of it.

5. Unsure. It all depends on how long the shutdown lasts and if it happens again.

Do you think the Killeen City Council should support the local water district’s plan to switch from elected to appointed board members?

You voted:

1. Yes. As long as elected officials make the board appointments, it’s a good idea.

2. Yes. Appointments would yield better-qualified directors; that’s what is needed.
