Limited Government and Individual Rights
Candidate positionGovernment should do less. Your rights are not negotiable. Christine believes the proper role of government is narrow and well-defined: protect individual rights, maintain essential public services, and enforce fair and consistent laws. When government overreaches — regulating personal choices, picking economic winners and losers, or expanding bureaucracy for its own sake — it undermines the freedom and self-determination that make communities thrive. Over a decade in healthcare have given Christine a deep appreciation for constitutional rights and the dignity of every individual. She believes all Michiganders deserve equal protection under the law — regardless of background, belief, or circumstance. Government should be a neutral referee, not a player with its thumb on the scale.

Privacy & Protection from Surveillance
Candidate positionYour data, your movements, your life — not the government's business. We are living in an era of unprecedented surveillance. Flock cameras track your vehicle across cities. Data centers harvest and store your personal information. AI systems monitor, profile, and predict your behavior — often without your knowledge or consent. Christine believes that every Michigan resident has a fundamental right to privacy, and that government has no business building a surveillance infrastructure over the people it is supposed to serve. She will fight to restrict government use of mass surveillance technology, hold data collectors accountable, and ensure that no Michigander is treated as a suspect simply for going about their daily life.

Government Transparency
Candidate positionYou have a right to know how your money is spent. Transparency is not a luxury — it is a requirement of legitimate government. Christine will push for open records, public budget hearings, and plain-language reporting on how taxpayer dollars are used. She will oppose backroom deals and any process designed to limit public scrutiny of government action. Lansing should be an open book, not a closed club.

Why Is She Running?
Candidate positionChristine Sloan is running for Michigan Secretary of State to put the office back where it belongs: serving citizens, not political interests. The Secretary of State's job is not to be a partisan activist, a social media influencer, or a stepping stone to higher office. It is to administer elections fairly, maintain accurate voter rolls, protect voter privacy, and provide efficient services to Michigan residents. As Secretary of State, Christine will focus on: • Maintaining clean and accurate voter rolls while complying with state and federal law. • Expanding transparency so voters can independently verify how elections are conducted. • Protecting the privacy of Michigan citizens by limiting unnecessary collection and sharing of personal information. • Modernizing services without creating new barriers, fees, or bureaucracy. • Ensuring every qualified voter can cast a ballot—and that every lawful ballot is counted. • Treating all political parties and candidates fairly, including independent and minor-party candidates too often shut out by the political establishment. • Returning the office to its core mission of customer service, efficiency, and accountability. Michigan deserves a Secretary of State who sees government as a service provider, not a political platform. Christine Sloan will defend election integrity, protect individual liberty, and make government work for the people who pay for it.

Accountability in Lansing
Candidate positionElected officials should answer to you — not to party bosses. Too many arrive in Lansing and quickly become more loyal to their party leadership than to the constituents who sent them. Christine will not play that game. She will hold herself to the same standard of transparency she demands from others.
