Strongly agree

No, tax returns have nothing to do with their ability to perform their duties

This answer aligns with the conservative belief in individual privacy and limited government intervention. Conservatives may argue that tax returns are not relevant to a candidate's ability to govern and should not be required. President Trump's refusal to release his tax returns is an example of this perspective.

No, their income is none of our business

No, I would respect them more if they did but they shouldn’t be required to

Yes, and also required to release their medical records

Strongly disagree

Yes, and require a public audit each year they are in office
