Danielle Ford

Other · Governor, Nevada

Ford has not spoken publicly on U.S. weapons or money for the government of Israel, or on U.S. aid to Palestinians. No statement was found in source-checked research across 12 sources.

12 sources checked and read, every one listed on the research page. Most candidates at this level have simply never been asked.

You are better placed to change that than we are. Ask Ford directly, or at a candidate forum, and send us the reply: it goes on this page in their own words, which is worth more than anything we could write about them.

An earlier check had already recorded, with a date, that no position on this question was found here, and that finding is preserved in the record.

Verification, 2026-08-12: checked, and the absence holds

The first search reported that "in candidate questionnaires for state and local elections, such as an iVoterGuide survey, she declined to answer questions regarding U.S. foreign military relations and Israel". Her iVoterGuide entry was rendered and read in full, 1,025 words. It is her own profile, for **Nevada State Board of Education, District 3**.

The Israel question is there and is recorded "Did not answer". So is almost every other question on the form: abortion, the economy, religious liberty, education, the second amendment, and the foreign-policy self-description. She returned the questionnaire without answering it.

That is why this stays an absence card. Writing "she was asked about Israel and declined to answer" would imply a choice about this subject, and the page shows no such choice. Compare mi-gov-brandenburg and id-sen-fleming in this group, who answered most of their forms and declined these questions specifically; for them the same non-answer is a fact worth a card.

The generated record, kept

Everything below comes from the first search’s own notes, and is kept unchanged so that what was looked for, and what came back, stays on the record.

What was looked for, and what came back

The rest of what the first search returned on the questions with no answer

Each line above is the first sentence of what the first search returned for that question. Where it said more after that sentence, the whole passage is reproduced here word for word, so the qualification stands on the record alongside the finding. Em dashes are rendered as hyphens to satisfy house style; no wording is changed.

### U.S. military aid and weapons to Israel There is no public record of Danielle Ford taking a position or issuing statements regarding U.S. military aid, foreign aid, or weapons shipments to Israel. In candidate questionnaires for state and local elections, such as an iVoterGuide survey, she declined to answer questions regarding U.S. foreign military relations and Israel.

### Characterization of the conflict There is no public record of Danielle Ford offering characterizations, commentary, or positions on the Israel/Palestine conflict. Her campaign platform for the 2026 Nevada gubernatorial race focuses on state and local policy issues, such as education, housing affordability, healthcare access, and public administration.

### Rhetoric and lobbying There is no public record of Danielle Ford making statements or taking stances on Israel-related political rhetoric or lobbying groups such as AIPAC. In her 2026 gubernatorial platform, she has expressed a general commitment to running outside the two-party system and remaining independent of party machines, PACs, and lobbyists, but she has not addressed foreign policy lobbying or Israel specifically.

### Safety and antisemitism There is no public record of Danielle Ford issuing statements or policy positions specifically addressing antisemitism or security for Jewish communities.

Her public statements on community safety have focused on state and local issues, such as public school safety and policing. In a candidate questionnaire for the Nevada Association of Student Councils, she advocated for a "zero-tolerance stance" against hate and discrimination in public schools to protect students' civil rights across race, religion, national origin, gender, and LGBTQ+ identities. However, she did not single out antisemitism or discuss safety regarding the Israel/Palestine context.
