Greiner's campaign website highlighted the following issues:[10]
Jobs & Economic Growth
- Excerpt: "Marcellus Shale natural gas exploration is transforming Pennsylvania's economy, bringing new jobs to our state, and helping existing businesses grow. That's why Keith has taken a common sense approach to make sure our state reaches its full potential for job creation from these activities while ensuring our natural resources are protected."
Fiscal Discipline
- Excerpt: "In Harrisburg, Keith has made government do more with less by doing what we do at home: focusing the money we have on the priorities that matter. That means making sure our tax dollars are spent on things that make a real difference for all of us - like job creation, education, public safety, agriculture and looking out for our seniors and children."
Education
- Excerpt: "Keith knows that traditional public education is not right for every child. That's why he has supported all educational opportunities, including home schooling, on-line learning, school choice, and more. Parents should have the right to provide their children with what's best for them, and Keith is working to make sure they can."
Preserving Our Natural Heritage
- Excerpt: "Keith is also working everyday to help family farms survive and thrive -- both because of their importance to our local economy and their importance to protecting our natural heritage for years to come."
Reform Harrisburg
- Excerpt: "Just like he promised, Keith refuses the per diems, meals and cell phone paid for by our tax dollars.and will push to cut the perks given to all legislators. Keith will never vote to raise his own pay. He will also post all his office expenses on-line for public review."

Scorecards
A scorecard evaluates a legislator’s voting record. Its purpose is to inform voters about the legislator’s political positions. Because scorecards have varying purposes and methodologies, each report should be considered on its own merits. For example, an advocacy group’s scorecard may assess a legislator’s voting record on one issue while a state newspaper’s scorecard may evaluate the voting record in its entirety.
Ballotpedia is in the process of developing an encyclopedic list of published scorecards. Some states have a limited number of available scorecards or scorecards produced only by select groups. It is Ballotpedia’s goal to incorporate all available scorecards regardless of ideology or number.
