REPUBLICAN
Kiernan, 51, is running on the Republican, Conservative and Independence party lines. Elected tax receiver in 2007, Kiernan is seeking her fourth four-year term.
ISSUES:
- Kiernan said she has been able to cut costs by reducing staff and using technological advances to make her office run more efficiently.
- Since she started in 2007, Kiernan said the budget for her office has increased only 5% to date, which she said indicated her office was “doing a good job in terms of efficiency.”
- If re-elected, Kiernan wants to continue to focus on efficiency and cost savings for her office.
