He sent me an email saying he'd be interested in seeing comments on the positions he gave, so I sent him a long explanation of why one who holds some of them will not get the patriot vote.  There were a couple of paragraphs on LB289.

After doing what research I could I came to the conclusion that Suzanne Geist is the one I will support for my district (25).  She and Dave Tagart both get an A from NRA/PVF (actually Aq).  I've talked to Suzanne but not Dave.  She convinced me that she will be a reliable supporter of the right to keep and bear arms in Nebraska.  I asked her specifically about LB 289 and she assured me that she would have supported it and will do so if there is an opportunity to do so.

Did you ask why she did not respond to the NFOA-PAF survey, nobody from your district did. It makes it hard to make endorsements and encourage support for candidates that won't. It brings to question if they will listen to what we Nebraska gun owners want or what will play well with the Washington insiders.

She actually did talk about that.  What she said is when you run for political office apparently you get sent a lot of surveys and filling them all out ends up taking a lot of time and she didn't fill out all of the ones she got (at least that's what I understood her point to be).  An A grade from the NRA is a good part of her resume' though.  I told her that I had tried to contact her through her campaign web page and did not find a way to do so.  She said if you click on the help my campaign button you get something that allows you to send her an email.  I did tell her that she should do more to make her position on this issue known, because it's very important to a lot of us.
