where does gale stand?

I have served as the Cary Town Council District D representative since 2007.

I’m regarded as a Council member who does her homework, asks thoughtful questions and makes decisions based on data—not special interests, ideologies or partisanship. I respect my Council colleagues and expect the same. I work for consensus and refuse to marginalize or triangulate.

As a centrist I believe that collaboration with others with opposing views can lead to unconsidered and often better solutions. I’m not afraid to disagree with others and to have them disagree with me in an effort to solve tough problems. I consider our Council a team. Each member deserves mutual respect and an opportunity to have their views heard. It is my belief that good ideas are not the property of one political viewpoint.

After the election my top three priorities will continue to be fiscal responsibility, public safety and economic vitality and growth.
