Driven. Conservative. For the People.
Meet Shannon
Shannon is not new to the political scene. Shannon has challenged establishment policies that protect our youth and seniors while also fighting against increased taxation. As a lifelong resident of Montgomery County, Shannon has a love for his community with a passion and drive for the betterment of all people within the 74th District which includes Montgomery, Bath, and Menifee counties.
On the Issues
Ending Property Tax
As a homeowner and business owner, I understand the burden of property tax and the financial strain it puts on families and businesses. I want to work to end property tax and switch the funding mechanism for public services to a state-level sales tax that broadens the base resulting in smaller payments from each person. Doing so will ensure tourists and visitors to the Commonwealth are contributing their fair share towards the cost of maintaining our public infrastructure. I have previously worked with state legislators to protect our property rights. I’ve testified at the Capitol on Senate Bill 71 (2016) and House Bill 18 (2024) to accomplish that objective. Both legislative bills are now enacted into law.
You can view my plan here.
Pro-2nd Amendment
The right to bear arms is a fundamental right guaranteed by the US Constitution. It is the cornerstone that protects all other rights. I am a supporter of nationwide constitutional carry. I will oppose all legislation that is introduced that infringes upon the right to bear arms including red flag laws, magazine capacity limitations, and other forms of gun control.
100% Pro-Life
Our Constitution guarantees the right of life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. Before we have liberty and pursue happiness, we must first have life. Life begins at conception and it is our duty to protect our most vulnerable. I do not believe our tax dollars should be spent toward ending a life before it begins and I will oppose all legislation presented that robs our most vulnerable the opportunity to have a life of liberty and happiness.
Defending the Constitution
As a staunch believer in our nation’s Constitution, I will oppose all legislation in our state that goes against the framework laid by our Founding Fathers. Additionally, the constitution of the Commonwealth of Kentucky is the foundation for which our beautiful state began. It is my honor and duty to stand for the people of the 74th district to uphold both our federal and state constitutions.

61st District
“I’m honored to endorse Shannon Denniston to serve the citizens of Kentucky’s 74th District.
Shannon is an authentic conservative who shares our values: protecting individual liberty, defending the 2nd Amendment, standing up for property rights, and fighting big-government overreach.
He’s not a career politician. He’s a principled fighter with a proven track record of pushing back against harmful policies that have made it harder for Kentucky’s families to get ahead.
We need representatives who will actually shrink government, defend our constitutional freedoms, and lower taxes. Shannon Denniston will serve the citizens of Montgomery, Menifee, and Bath Counties – not special interest groups and bureaucrats.
Please join me in supporting Shannon Denniston as he fights to put Kentucky’s families first.”

TJ Roberts
KY State Representative
66th District
“I’m honored to endorse my friend Shannon Denniston for State Representative.
In all my years of defending Christian, Constitutional, Conservative values, I have met many great advocates. Few understand the true role of government better than Shannon Denniston. His principles are in line with the cause of small government, and his record proves it.
Shannon also understands that you owe it to your ideas to make them win! Shannon has stood with the citizens since I was in elementary school to keep taxes low, and has successfully pushed back on the most immoral tax; the tax on your home!
Shannon knows that freedom matters. In 2020 Shannon was the ONLY elected official in his county to stand against lockdowns and the unscientific, totalitarian mask mandates that Andy Beshear and fake-doctor Fauci imposed upon us without any basis. Shannon stands for what’s right, even if he stands alone.
Shannon further will have more legislative experience than any other freshman member of the General Assembly in 2027. Shannon was able to help pass HB71 in 2016 to limit property tax increases to stop regulations that make housing impossible for my generation.
Shannon has my complete and total endorsement because he’s an effective fighter for liberty, and I know he will be a close ally in the legislature – especially in the fight to ABOLISH PROPERTY TAXES! Please vote for Shannon on May 19.”

Steve Doan
KY State Representative
69th District
“As as Representative for Kentucky’s 69th District, I have seen firsthand the importance of standing firm on the principles that make out Commonwealth strong: individual liberty, limited government, and the unalienable rights of our citizens – especially the fundamental right to own and control property without excessive government interference. I am proud to endorse Shannon Denniston for Kentucky State Representative in the 74th District.
Shannon is a proven Conservative who shares my commitment to fighting for the individual over burdensome government mandates. He is leading the charge to end Kentucky’s property tax, recognizing that once you’ve paid for your land, home, or vehicle with after-tax dollars, no one -especially the government- should force you to “rent” it back through endless taxation. This isn’t just policy; it’s about protecting property rights and ensuring families and businesses can build generational wealth without the constant threat of government overreach.
Shannon’s passion for our communities in Montgomery, Bath, and Menifee counties, is matched by his willingness to challenge establishment thinking and prioritize the people over politics. He understand that true conservatism means defending our constitutional freedoms supporting pro-life and pro-2nd Amendment values, promoting jobs and business growth, and putting tax payers first.
Kentucky needs more representatives like Shannon Denniston -principled, driven, and ready to stand up for the individual against and ever expanding government.
I urge the voters of the 74th District in joining me in supporting Shannon Denniston. He will be a strong voice for liberty, property rights, and the values we hold dear.”
