CONNER HEYWOOD, a ninth grader at Loyalton High School, is one of Donald Trump’s youngest and biggest supporters. Conner began following the presidential race when he started hearing how the upcoming election could change how the next generation could secure a job. He started following the candidates to see which one would appeal to him. He thought Ben Carson had good leadership skills, but said he didn’t stand up for himself. On Bernie Sanders, Conner said he liked the idea of free college but stated Bernie didn’t have the plans for it. Conner didn’t go for Hillary Clinton based on the Clinton’s history. He saw Hillary’s America at the IMAX in Reno after talking his paternal grandma into taking him. He said the movie gave a lot of facts about the Clintons but was mainly about the Democratic Party and its history.
Conner supports Donald Trump because he stated Trump seems like he could be a change for America. Conner said Trump wants to make it so all get equal and fair pay by lowering taxed income for both high and small business companies. He stated it was also about rights, including gun rights. He believes a registered, licensed owner should be able to purchase any firearm and Clinton is against this. Conner believes when he goes to get a job in the future, he should be allowed equal pay as anybody else, and not given to someone who will do the job for quite a bit less. Conner said Trump “stands up to the rest of them” and feels a   lot of people want change. He did admit you would be taking a risk voting for him, but added that’s something you need to be willing to take if you want change in this country. 
Conner watches the debates live and tapes them so he can watch again. He watched the latest debate three times. On this latest debate, Conner thought Clinton won because she was more prepared, but feels the next debate will be different. He was looking forward to attending a Trump rally held Wednesday, October 5th in Reno at the Reno-Sparks Convention Center. 
Conner took a poll of his Freshman class on how they would vote. He said 50% stated they would vote for neither candidate and 50% would vote for Trump.To voters, Conner says if you don’t vote, you don’t have the right to complain. Through this process, he is thinking of going into political science as a career and has looked at colleges through a Freshman Focus class at school. Conner’s dad Shawn stated, “Although we don't always agree on all of his views we are proud that he has taken such an interest in his country and its leaders.  Who knows maybe we will see his name on the ballot some day.”
Look for Conner dressed as Donald Trump on both, Halloween and Election Day.
Besides being caught up in this Presidential election,  
Conner does computer and phone repairs, all self
taught. He mainly performs screen repairs in phones and tablets and will set up computers and give lessons. Conner also offers computer consulting, giving advice on how to get the cheapest and which one would work well for your needs
