Representative George Nikolakakos is a successful businessman, a decorated twenty-year Veteran, an experienced legislator, and a father of four energetic 5th generation Montanans. A solutions-driven Conservative, he is a Republican running for Montana Legislature. George has grown a real estate enterprise, served key positions in both Great Falls military missions, and participates on numerous state/local non-profit boards. He is qualified and motivated to continue tackling problems for everyday Montanans on day one of the legislative session.
George passed bills that cut millions in taxes, slashed red tape, supported veterans and servicemembers, bolstered 2A rights, and fought for fiscal responsibility and balanced budgets. He was proud to work to make Montana the only state in the nation with no bond rating because we are completely debt free. George will continue to fight every day in Helena for lower taxes, lower living costs, and traditional Montana Values while standing against special interests. |

As a housing sector businessman with a fiscally conservative approach, George understands the difference between wasteful spending and long-term investing. That skill has never been needed more in government than today. He has been named a "Champion of Business" by the Chamber of Commerce, received the CPAC Award for Conservative Achievement, and been highly rated by the NFIB (National Federation of Independent Businesses). In the legislature George will continue to champion economic opportunity for families and businesses alike.

With a servant's heart George is running to get things done for Montanans. Making noise and getting attention might make good politics but usually produces poor results. Through hard work with a sense of integrity and respect George firmly believes that public service can be a noble calling. But only when elected officials don't forget that holding office means taking a step down to serve under people, not over them. We need principled leaders who will listen and put aside self interest to take on the challenges of our day. George is ready to answer that call.
