Comment by Keith Allred about Candidate:
  Representative Hagedorn has been interested in our views and expressed appreciation for our work. He has expressed his receptivity to our approach to policy by recalling an attitude he cultivated as a Naval officer. His mantra there was, “In God we trust, all others bring data.” We have worked particularly closely with him, given the likelihood that the federal court will strike down Idaho’s open primary, on our proposal for a modified open primary that would preserve the ability of independents to vote in the primary while passing constitutional muster. In fact, Representative Hagedorn was a co-sponsor on an early version of this proposal.
Statement by Candidate about Why Running:
  Statement with regards to the reasons I'm running: Having spent 1/2 of my working life in public service (US Navy) and the other in the private sector, it's become clear to me that the most satisfaction one can gain is helping others succeed. Our State and it's citizens deserve proven leadership at the helm to guide us in continued positive directions. As we all know, issues with drugs, prisons, education, transportation and health and welfare are not only monetarily taxing our citizens but socially taxing us as well. These issues require a vigilant focus on working out solutions that we can all be happy with in the long term. I have in the past, and will continue in the future, focus my leadership skills and abilities to that end.
Candidate Statement about The Common Interest:
 

Thoughts on the Common Interest and how I would like to work with them: As we have in the past, I enjoy finding new ideas and solutions to issues with TCI. I always look forward to working with Keith and digging into issues to find the bridge that will help us cross the barriers of partisanship.

Candidate Bio:
 

Bio: Marv grew up in Northern Idaho on a farm north of Moscow. He went to school in Potlatch and entered the Navy in 1974. After 20 years in the Navy, Marv came back home to Idaho to work in the semi-conductor equipment manufacturing business. Along the way he started his company The Hagedorn Group, Inc (www.THGwholesale.com, now one of America's largest equipment wholesale trade firms in North America) and is now working as full time CEO. Marv is the Idaho State Representative for District 20 in Meridian, Idaho.

Candidate Statement on Partisan Politics and Special Interests:
 

My thoughts with regards to partisan politics and/or special interests in the Legislature: Both of these are factors that one must be aware of and prepared to deal with. The basis of politics is that everyone has an equal say and vote. One must work within the system that exists while trying to reduce the influences of interests not representing the best interests of the citizens of the state. It's those citizens that must be represented, not a party or a company... the citizens. This is their state, we are here to work within the process set by the State's Constitution to represent their best interests.
