Tony Miller Launches Jackson County Republican Comeback!!!!

For weekend Kansas City political junkies we've got important news to share . . . 

TONY MILLER LAUNCHES GOP COMEBACK ELECTION BID FOR JACKSON COUNTY'S 3RD DISTRICT!!!! 

Here's why we think this is important . . . 

If she decides to fight for her job, we're not sure that Legislator Megan Marshall will be able to garner as much support as last time around given her rough alliance with recalled former Exec Frank White. 

One more thing that only political insiders will understand . . . 

Jackson County courthouse insiders really did an "about-face" on Mr. Miller during his prior tenure at the end of the COVID-era. He's a power player lawyer with a great many connections but a "reckoning" amongst progressives worked against him in a lot of different ways . . .

"As a Republican candidate for the Jackson County Legislature, I will focus on three core priorities:

"Lowering the burden on taxpayers by demanding real accountability for how every dollar is spent and focusing on tax assessments.

"​Making our neighborhoods safer by supporting law enforcement and proven crime-reduction strategies.

"Restoring trust in county government through transparency, ethics, and common-sense reform such as enacting term limits and electing a tax assessor.

"To lifelong Republicans, I ask you to judge me by my record of service, my willingness to listen, and my commitment to these shared principles. To Democrats and independents who have supported me before, I want you to know: I am still fighting for you—your safety, your pocketbook, and your quality of life. My party label has changed; my dedication to this community has not . . ."
