		Lawton said her priorities are to provide strong economic leadership in the state, to push for campaign finance reform that relies totally on public funding, fully support education from pre-K through college and to reassess the state tax system.
		Lawton said the current budget deficit was the result of deferring any difficult decisions on spending cuts in past years and allowing the budget to grow during the economic boom of the 90s.
		Lawton joked that no matter who prevails, if successful in capturing the second-to-the-top executive post, no governor would be able to "push her off into a closet," as she is determined to be an involved leader.

	Barbara Lawton
		Barbara Lawton was a champion high jumper for many years, but it was only after a decision to change her style, that she started to achieve her true potential.
		Barbara's performances as a straddle jumper were often unpredictable, like the time she equalled the UK record of 1.79m on 11 July 1970 just after missing out on selection for England's Commonwealth Games team.
		Within a fortnight Barbara had set a new UK record of 1.80m, and at the European Championships in Helsinki on 12 August, less than a month after deciding to change her technique, Barbara jumped 1.85m to tie for second place.

		LAWTON: And it's interesting, those folks who are really in favor of a strong separation of church and state are already in defensive mode about this, trying to find a way to praise the efforts of the faith-based groups but stop any forward motion on any support for vouchers or anything else.
