BELLEVUE- Carol Blood hopes to bring everyone back to the table to have collaborative government and put an end to “us versus them” rhetoric.

Blood’s campaign platforms include “Prosperity for all Nebraskans” addressing property taxes and attracting and retaining talent — especially those in the age 18-to-34 demographic; maintaining public safety and improving public health; investing in Nebraska’s infrastructure; and encouraging education.

Blood said she has canvassed well over 270,000 people through door knocking and phone banking. That doesn’t include town halls or social media.

Often, campaigns focus on rhetoric, telling voters what they should be scared of or angry about.

“I’m very pragmatic in my approach. I like to give explanations from Point A to Point B, which is not everybody’s cup of tea, but you don’t leave my events going ‘Well, I didn’t learn anything.’ You leave my events saying ‘I learned a lot. I learned things I didn’t know before.’ What more could you want from a town hall than people being enthusiastic about policy? It’s actually been really exciting.”

If elected, Blood plans to travel all over Nebraska, like she’s doing now, meet with constituents, hear their priorities and assemble a strategic plan.
