Welcome to the source of information for voters residing in Missouri’s 137th Legislative District, Springfield. The purpose of this comprehensive site is to provide information and resources to residents and business owners of North Springfield. Information is power and one of my goals, as your future representative, is to empower you with the scoop on issues and votes that affect all of us. This public disclosure will be supplemented with frequent updates on what is happening at the Capitol in general.

Do you want to know where I stand on the issues or maybe read some questions and answers from voters? How about learning who has endorsed my campaign so far? Maybe you would like to start by reading what has been released to the local media.

Just about any questions you may have should be covered within this site. If there is anything I missed, or if you have a question that needs to be specifically addressed, send it my way and I will publish the information so others can also be informed.

I look forward to meeting and speaking with you, before the election, this summer and fall. I will continue to communicate and represent the best interest of North Springfield after receiving your vote of confidence this November.

As for McCaskill “favoring” St. Louis I see none. I have spoken with her on occasion and she is always aware of what is going on in Kansas City and has seemed to maintain her interest here.

I am head of “Roos for McCaskill” as I like to call it although I meet much oppostion about political activism on the UMKC Campus. I have started working on plans to get information out to most of the universities on college campuses in and around the KC area. I also had the pleasure of attending Democrat Days held in Hannibal, MO. Claire’s speech was to be before the governors, but due to a “time conflict” the schedule had to be changed. It started with Holden giving his speech, then Joe Maxwell endorsing the governor, then Gov. Richardson of NM speaking in favor of Holden. Finally, as dessert was being served, Claire was allowed to speak. It was a very tense room for the MO Democratic Party does not deal well with oppostion within the party, although it should be embraced. As candidate for YDMO Treasuer, I would try to make a difference in the effectiveness of YD’s in Missouri and get the word out.
Claire is holding a Rally on the 22 of March at Arrowhead stadium. Please contact me at DRHTY5@umkc.edu for more details.

The Missouri Democratic Party has been using and still to this day is
paying for staff and its state director May Scheve Reardon, Chair to
maintain the State Democrat Website http://www.missouridems.org. The
website shows Governor Bob Holden at the top next to a picture of
Harry Truman. Please find the enclosed exhibit of the website as of
11/08/2003 which shows November 5, 2003: Holden gains more support:
Eagleton, Hearnes endorsement (Kansas City Star).

Nowhere on the site does it say that Claire C. McCaskill has
announced she is running for the Democratic Nomination in August of
2004 for Governor. The main question is who owns the Democratic
Party and why are people giving money to it at this time. The courts
in the past have ruled that the people own the party. People are
giving money now to support the ideals of the party not to support
certain candidates.

It is clear that the Bob Holden and Richard Gephardt people want all
contributions to flow to their campaigns and that is whey they have
tried to squash any primary in Missouri. This rises clear to the
White House doorstep and is contrary to the reasons of promoting
Democracy of the people of the world.

The Missouri Ethics Commission should start an immediate AUDIT to
reveal that funds are being sifened off to pay for campaign efforts
including e-mails asking people to travel to Iowa to campaign for
Richard Gephardt.

It would be reasonable that after the Primary the party would back
the winner. Before that time the law is being violated.

The Missouri Ethics Commission should do its job and ask for Judicial
i.e. a Court Order Freezing Banks and Financial accounts for the
State Democrat Party until the legality of using the official State
Party to promote certain candidates is determined. Not only is it
likely violating actual Missouri laws which the legislature has put
the Missouri Ethics Commission in charge of enforcing it violates the
charter of the State Party under section 10.01- Functions and
Services of the State Democrat Committee (3) Financial Assistance—
The DSC may make monetary contributions to Democrats not involved in
primary contest.

In this case the monies are being spent by the party to support
Richard Gephardt for President and Bob Holden for Governor. The
Missouri Ethics Commission has a responsibility to all the People of
Missouri to make sure Missouri Election and Campaign Expenditures are
Legal.

Some National Political experts predict Richard Gephardt could be the
final Democratic Nominee for the National Democratic Party and could
be eventually the President of the United States and the Leader of
the Free World.

To that end the Missouri Ethics Commission has a responsibility to
the people of Missouri and the world to make sure free open ands
legal elections occur.

concerns two people arrested at Jackson Days in May of 2003 for
giving out Draft Claire Leaflets.

Yeah, now she lives in Ladue when she’s not in Jefferson City, according to the Post-Dispatch.

Claire recently married a St. Louis businessman, so it wouldn’t be a surprise if she became more sympathetic St. Louis interests. And she will probably end up in St. Louis County after her political career, just like most Missouri politicians no matter where they are from.

Good lord Holden sucks. If he doesn’t do the honorable thing and step down he will be handing the office to the Republicans.

Either way the Republicans have a good advantage going into the 2004 election. Holden is doomed even without a primary challenger, and if McCaskill gets the nomination she will be hard-pressed make up the money and good-will expended during the primary.
