Congratulations to the @MoDemParty & grassroots activists for an amazing candidate recruitment effort. I just received the stellar report from Chmn Carnahan & as a result MO Dems will receive one of my candidate recruitment challenge grants. Here's what they accomplished: * 100% of Statewide and Congressional seats filled with candidates * 88% (15 of 17) of State Senate seats filled with candidates * 83% (135 of 163) of State House seats filled with candidates. This is a dramatic increase from 2022 when only 90 State House seats filled and it is the best presidential year recruiting number since 2008. Candidate recruitment is one of the hardest jobs of a state party… proud of the strides in MO!
@harrisonjaime @MoDemParty This is why no one should ignore the south (or any red state in general). A lot of marginalized and vulnerable voters live there and need our help and support.
@harrisonjaime @MoDemParty Excellent! But could you please tell Gary Peters to do the same for Lucas Kunce?
@harrisonjaime @MoDemParty Thanks for the shout out, Jaime! There are some great folks here in Missouri!
@harrisonjaime @MoDemParty Candidate recruitment is the hardest, most unsung work of grassroots Democratic Party volunteers. I am blessed here in my majority-making ("swing") district in Minnesota to have a unit chair who knows how to continually seek good candidates.
@harrisonjaime @mhtdemocrats @MoDemParty Bravo to Alex @MO_HouseDems and Missouri grassroots activism!
