Tammy Murphy is running for Montgomery County Auditor because she believes this office should focus on service, transparency, and fairness for every resident.
She explains:
“I’m running because our property tax system is broken—and the consequences aren’t abstract. They show up in kitchen-table conversations, on fixed incomes stretched too thin, and in families who feel confused, frustrated, or unheard. I’ve seen the real impact up close on the people I’ve worked with and the communities I care deeply about.”

That experience is why she believes service to the Auditor’s Office must focus on clarity, fairness, and practical solutions.
