Positions
Economy & Taxes
Public materials describe Nick Baker as a "small government Democrat" who supports a balanced federal budget and criticizes policies that favor billionaires and large agricultural corporations, while also saying the federal government can direct funds toward local farmers. These statements present both fiscally conservative language (small government, balanced budget) and populist critiques of wealth concentration, producing an unclear overall stance on taxes and economic redistribution.
Healthcare
The candidate describes himself as a "small government" Democrat who believes government should generally stay out of private decisions and emphasizes personal responsibility for health. His campaign materials prioritize limited federal roles and incentives to reduce health-related issues rather than proposing broad government expansions of coverage. No campaign materials located endorse single-payer, Medicare-for-All, or an explicit expansion of federal universal coverage.

His campaign materials do not list specific climate targets, Green New Deal–style proposals, or detailed clean‑energy policy; public statements on comprehensive climate or energy policy are limited/vague.
