Today, The Two Mikes spoke with Ms. Tricia Jackson who is running for the position of State Auditor in West Virginia.
Ms. Jackson graduated with a Bachelor's degree from Liberty University in business administration with a concentration in Project Management. She also holds two HR certifications as a Professional in Human Resources.
In her career, Ms. Jackson has been a mother, small business owner and, since 2020, has served as County Commissioner in Jefferson County, the county in which she was born. Like the other candidates for state office in West Virginia, Ms. Jackson has been crisscrossing the state by car to meet and speak to as many people as possible before the primary election on 14 May 2022.
There is, for The Two Mikes, something refreshing about not seeing candidates flying around in private jets and being more interested in speaking with the media and big donors rather than with the voters.
And Ms. Jackson has a good story to tell as she describes one of the state's problems; namely, that money that is appropriated in the state budget does not always get spent on the project or program for which it was intended.
If elected as state auditor, Ms. Jackson said that she intends to have her department provide steady and in-depth tracking over spending in all of West Virginia’s counties and municipalities in the state to make certain that tax dollars are spent in the manner in which they were intended to be spent.
As auditor, Ms. Jackson has an Inspector General in her department, and she said she will ensure that the IG and his team will be busy in rectifying any misspending that is identified.
