**Update 3/4/26 ** There will be major canvassing events starting the week of March 16th, and I need your help to get the word out about my campaign. I need to be able to print around $800 of literature in the next couple of weeks. Can I count on your support to help? See the bottom of the page to contribute. Thanks in advance for anything you can spare in these trying times.

Vote for Justin Kendall on Tuesday, May 5th! 

What am I fighting for?

1. County Government that listens to, and works for, its constituents.
2. County Government that stops wasting large amounts of money because it structures its policies and budgets in ways that promote waste and prevent transparency to know whether money was spent efficiently or effectively.
3. County Government that doesn't play politics between departments and gets things done for the public good.

Why am I the right candidate?

1. The county is financially bloated due to inefficient operations and major budget cuts are coming from state legislation. The county HAS TO change what it's doing. I've spent the last 11 years working as a Systems Engineer with state government agencies to become more operationally efficient, more responsive, and more effective for their constituents. We did this through assessing business processes and roadblocks experienced by the agencies and coming up with solutions- whether those were technology solutions, policy solutions, or people solutions. The county needs someone at the Commissioner level with my background to help clean up the mess that exists in county government today and set it up for success in the future.
2. I have deep roots in this community. I've been a local business owner in Lafayette for the past 9 years as the owner of two independent bookstores, and lived in Lafayette for 13 years. I grew up in nearby Frankfort, IN and spent lots of time in Lafayette growing up.  After spending more than a decade in the private sector making government work for other states, I want to focus on my own backyard, making Tippecanoe County government work best it can possibly work for this community.
