This week Legislator Tarwater offered critical support for open government meetings at the Courthouse. His statement advocated for accountability and voter rights and this week it was the boldest political action we've seen at 12th & Oak.

Patrick Tuohey Challenges Kansas City Sales Tax With Data Driven Arguments


Mr. Tuhoey is armed with a bevy of data, research and studies to support his centre-right struggle to keep taxes low. This week his challenge against the Mayor's tax & spend agenda was exceptionally poignant and echoed a great deal of sentiment from local schools.

Clay Chastain Campaign For Mayor Garners Increasing Attention From Frustrated KCMO Voters


There's simply no denying that in this crowded field Clay's campaign is getting a lot more attention than most had expected. As the most prolific petitioner in Kansas City's history, his outsider approach might resonate given that so many mayoral candidate seem to resonate a "sameness" that has stifled interest in the campaign so far.

And so, with an honorable mention for the good people of Iowa who have taken over Downtown Kansas City and now compete for national glory . . .

  1. Here's what I like about Clay.

    He is going to get more votes than somebody who spent thousands and thousands of dollars to compete in this race and THAT person will never be able to run again. So he's actually doing the world some good.

  5. Kansas City is not smart enough to put someone humble in as mayor. They will vote for a phony money bag like Steve Miller or another clown like Quintan Lucas that will rename all the streets in Kansas City after some black person.

  6. I’m surprised Frankie boy hasn’t screamed that dan is racist for challenging him, that’s what black people do when they’re get legitimately challenged by whitey. That’s coming, just wait, you’ll see.
