Kansas City 4th District: Rizzo Ahead Of Bunch In Council Election Signup

As we noted, this week council election signature gathering started and we want to share a quick story about political experience outmaneuvering the advantages of the incumbent. 

The basics . . .

KCMO 4th District challenger Henry Rizzo seems to have garnered an important victory in ballot position for the upcoming council election.

Here's a bit of insight into how he did it . . .

On Tuesday morning election petitioners lined up in KCMO to start their campaign. 

Meanwhile . . .

Henry Rizzo placed himself ahead of the pack by waiting in line early at Clay County election board offices with more than 700 voter petition signatures in tow.
