Jared Hendrix completed Ballotpedia's Candidate Connection survey in 2024. The survey questions appear in bold and are followed by Hendrix's responses. Candidates are asked three required questions for this survey, but they may answer additional optional questions as well.
| Collapse all
- Cost of living, rising crime in Fargo, failing school proficiencies, rising property taxes, mental health crisis, affordable childcare – these are some of the issues I hear about in our District. Let's lower the cost of living by reducing taxes, burdensome regulations and wasteful spending. Let's fully fund our k-12 schools to reduce local property tax burdens and make sure funds go to the classroom. Let's get tough on violent crime but less harsh on nonviolent offenders. Let's reduce the power of special interest lobbyists and unelected bureaucrats in the Capitol. Let's make it more affordable to start a childcare business by cutting red tape without endangering the health and safety of the child. We need price transparency in healthcare.
- North Dakota has all it needs for success and self sufficiency – agriculture, oil, coal, gas, water aquifers, rail infrastructure, a growing tech industry and, most importantly of all, hard working people. We have a strong culture and values. Our state has tens of billions in various funds – with the potential to use these funds for either the politically well-connected, or for public benefit.
- Public funds should be used for public benefit. Too often, the politically well-connected in Bismarck – mostly lobbyists and bureaucrats – take advantage of our process. Instead of spending hundreds of millions of dollars to special interests, let's use these funds on the things that matter for everyone – roads, schools, emergency services, infrastructure, etc. There's far too much crony capitalism and corporate handouts to special interests.
I'll meet you in the corner.

Scorecards
A scorecard 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.
