Agree

No

From a localist perspective, the emphasis is on community trust and personal relationships rather than compliance with standardized transparency measures.

Slightly agree

No, their income is none of our business

Slightly agree

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

This answer aligns somewhat with localist ideology, which might prioritize the candidate's ability to address local issues and engage with the community over formal financial transparency. However, localism also values community trust, which could be undermined by a lack of transparency.

Disagree

Yes

Localism emphasizes the importance of decisions being made at the local level, focusing on community and direct involvement. While transparency is valued, the requirement for political candidates to release their tax returns might be seen as less critical from a localist perspective, which prioritizes community engagement and personal interactions over bureaucratic measures of accountability.

Disagree

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

Requiring a public audit each year a candidate is in office might be viewed as overly bureaucratic and not in line with localist principles, which favor less formal, community-based forms of accountability and governance.

Strongly disagree

Yes, and also required to release their medical records

The requirement to release medical records, in addition to tax returns, might be viewed by localists as an unnecessary invasion of privacy that detracts from focusing on community issues and personal engagement, which are core to localist ideology.
