Eric Hovde is running for the United States Senate because he loves his country and wants to address the problems facing it. He is deeply concerned about the financial security of the country, with the national debt skyrocketing under the Biden-Harris administration. Hovde is also worried about domestic security, criticizing Senator Tammy Baldwin's support for defunding the police and open-border policies. He highlights the dangers of the open southern border, including the influx of criminal elements and the fentanyl crisis. Hovde believes that the country has become too divisive and pledges to work towards common sense solutions without compromising his principles. He promises to put America's interests first and use his experience to get things done if elected as U.S. Senator.
