STL-Post Dispatch Endorses KC's Jason Kander While Trashing Rex Sinquefield



An STL-Post Dispatch Endorsement for Missouri Secretary Of State Candidate Jason Kander was took aim at the lead supporter for his opposition.

Retired investor Rex Sinquefield of St. Louis is trying to buy himself a secretary of state.

"Mr. Sinquefield, the most prolific campaign donor in Missouri history, has written two checks to Mr. Schoeller totaling $400,000. That's a lot of cash from a guy who has spent a lot of time in the last few years trying to get the secretary of state to write favorable language for his many, mostly bad, ballot proposals.
No matter who he belongs to, a pet secretary of state would be a very scary prospect for Missouri.

Mr. Sinquefield generally hasn't had much luck using his millions in donations to convince the Missouri Legislature to pass his bad ideas . . ."

It's an interesting endorsement that wasn't unexpected but might give conservative voters something to think about given that the GOP also has their problems with Sinquefield cash as well.

I heard the parent company of Post Dispatch is in bankruptcy. Anyone confirm?

As long as the SOS has the ability to materially alter the wording of voter initiatives, we need those who sponsor such initiatives to do what they can to insert people into the office who might be less inclined to do so. By the way, I'd be saying the same thing if it were a republican who had been abusing the process for the last several years.

How long before that commenter asks if a former Kansas City Council Member endorses Kander?

Which former council member is that poster referring to?

Almost all politicians are bought, make your decisions on who is buying them.
