Shane Quick completed Ballotpedia's Candidate Connection survey in 2019. The survey questions appear in bold and are followed by Quick's responses.
What would be your top three priorities, if elected?
Establish Constitutional minded committees, develop a strategy of efficiency in the legislative process, fix lingering issues that have not been resolved.
What areas of public policy are you personally passionate about?
Healthcare reform in a wide ranging sense, establishment of a guaranteed Republican form of state government as the Constitution state in Article IV section 4, getting special interest under control.
Who do you look up to? Whose example would you like to follow, and why?
King Solomon, his infinite wisdom and depth of insight have been known by no other. Also, men like the Founding Fathers; they cared not for the governance of a tyrant and chose their own path.
Is there a book, essay, film, or something else you would recommend to someone who wants to understand your political philosophy?
The Patriot, if you leave a man a free man he'll never have to become a minute man.
What characteristics or principles are most important for an elected official?
Strive for incorruptibility. Be able to discern everything wrong with a given scenario and have a contingency on multiple angles.
What qualities do you possess that you believe would make you a successful officeholder?
I am highly analytical, skeptical, think outside the box, and strategic/methodical in nature.
What do you believe are the core responsibilities for someone elected to this office?
Oversee bill passing activities and be sure the will of the people is not usurped by lobbyist. Weed out bad actors in the political realm.
What legacy would you like to leave?
The legacy of a man who was never put in a box and stayed true to the cause.
What is the first historical event that happened in your lifetime that you remember? How old were you at the time?
I was about 20 or so, the event was 9/11. It was a pivot point and an awakening of who is an enemy in American history.
What was your very first job? How long did you have it?
Sacking groceries, had that job for about 2 years, then off to a real job after high school.
What happened on your most awkward date?
The lady and I were absolutely opposite and not even able to really chat.
What is your favorite holiday? Why?
Thanksgiving maybe, because of the uniquely American traditionalist aspect of it.
What is your favorite book? Why?
My favorite book, philosophically speaking, is what ever book I have an overwhelming desire to read. That varies like the wind.
If you could be any fictional character, who would you want to be?
Forrest Gump. He was free to live in his own reality, and had a positive outlook along with good fortune most of the time.
What is your favorite thing in your home or apartment? Why?
The air of comfort and familiarity. The very essence of "home", just being there.
What was the last song that got stuck in your head?
Blue Moon, by Ryan Upchurch. It is a song about solitude and reflection, inner peace, and being integral to the world around you.
What is something that has been a struggle in your life?
Being partially deaf has been a very defining part of life in many positive ways. It has also been its share of a curse in having to rely on electronic man made devices to hear and being practically deaf without them.
What qualities does this office possess that makes it a unique and important part of the state government?
Oversight mainly, the ability to strike down bills.
What responsibilities of this office do you personally consider the most important?
Carefully vetting who will be on committees to be sure corporate shills and lobby pawns are not on them.
Are there any little-known powers or responsibilities held by this office that you believe more people should be aware of?
As Lt. Governor you have the ability to assemble whole teams of Constitutional minded intellectuals. Also that you may strike down any bill that is bad for Life, Liberty, and the pursuit of Happiness.
Do you believe that it's beneficial for holders of this office to have previous experience in government or politics?
Yes if you have had good government, no if you are trying to correct problems of a legislature controlled by special interest.
What kind of skills or expertise do you believe would be the most helpful for the holders of this office to possess?
A knowledge of history, blue collar knowledge with one's hands, and knowledge of how things work behind the scenes. Basically being educated and open to always learning. As with all surveys like this one times and experience may mold and shape thoughts and opinions in different ways. If the answers never change then the answerer may not have evolved-remember that.
