BEK TV's Exclusive One-on-One with Congressman Kelly Armstrong for ND Governor

Tammy Miller, another Republican candidate for Governor and Armstrong's primary contender, declined the invitation to the debate because she was unable to attend. This gave Armstrong a solo platform to articulate his vision for the state. Throughout the interview, Armstrong delved deep into a myriad of issues critical to North Dakota's future.

A significant portion of the conversation focused on economic concerns, particularly property taxes—a hot button issue for many North Dakotans. Armstrong outlined his plans for property tax reform, emphasizing relief for homeowners and considerations for sustainable state revenue.

Fiscal responsibility was another major theme. Armstrong criticized the current trajectory of the federal deficit and discussed his strategy for reducing it, aiming to ensure a more stable economic future for North Dakota and the country.

Energy policy, a cornerstone of North Dakota’s economy, was also a central topic. Armstrong reaffirmed his support for carbon-based fuels, recognizing the state's role as a major energy producer. Additionally, he expressed enthusiasm for the potential expansion of nuclear power, highlighting its importance in the state's move towards sustainable and reliable energy sources.

BEK TV's interview not only highlighted Armstrong's detailed policy platform but also underscored the station's commitment to keeping voters well-informed about their choices in the upcoming election. As the race for the governorship heats up, North Dakotans have a clearer picture of where Armstrong stands on issues that matter most to them, thanks to BEK TV’s comprehensive coverage.
