AFP-Missouri Celebrates Endorsed Candidates’ Election Wins
JEFFERSON CITY, MO – Americans for Prosperity-Missouri (AFP-MO) congratulated its three candidates who won their races for the state Senate and House of Representatives today, after the organization’s months of canvassing and door-to-door advocacy in support of these candidates.
David Gregory, a former state representative, won his race for Senate District 15. In the state House, Rep. Phil Oehlerking (HD-100) and Mike Jones (non-incumbent, HD-12) won their races.
AFP-MO State Director, Gary Hollis, gave the following statement:
“We’re thrilled that these principled leaders will be representing Missourians in the state legislature next year, and we’re even more excited to get to work with them in the legislature to deliver on tax cuts, regulatory reform, and expanding education freedom across the Show-Me State.
“Grassroots engagement proved to be the key factor in these competitive races. By contacting over 30,000 voters across the state, our activists helped make the difference in these races and sent more liberty-minded leaders to Jefferson City.”
Background:
