1. What are your Qualifications for Office? (50 word limit)

Answer from Dusty Rhodes:

I have been County Auditor since 1990 and have been re-elected three times. My background in public service and finance plus my ability to hire a top flight, professional staff qualifies me for this office.

2. What plans do you have to address your top three priorities? (100 word limit)

Answer from Dusty Rhodes:

I specifically plan to continue improving our website and the information it offers, to upgrade our technology and monitor the results and to encourage staff and public input in our work. I will work to make sure the public understands a strength of county government is that our office (and others) are independent and answerable directly to the voters. We do not report to the County Commissioners.
