Munzlinger Wins!

District 18 is now under new leadership as Brian Munzlinger has beaten Wes Shoemyer for State Senate, winning 58.3% of the vote, according to the Secretary of State's website.

Munzlinger was quick to thank his supporters after the election, and is ready to take on his new responsiblities.

"And then we knuckle down and get to work. Of course with the session coming on and being able to file bills December 1st, I've got some ideas, but that's what we're going to be looking at is getting to work and doing good conservative things that people sent us to Jeff City to do," Munzlinger told WGEM last night.

In other relevant election results, Prop B, the Puppy Mill Cruelty Prevention Act, passed narrowly just over 51% of the vote.

Zachary Wyatt defeated Rebecca McClanahan with 60.6% of the vote to be the next State Representative for District 2. Roy Blunt won the U.S. Senate seat by defeating Robin Carnahan with 54.3% of the vote. It was a very successful day for Republicans nationwide, and Missouri was no exception.

With the election finished, so to will be this blog. Thank you for reading, and a final congratulations to Brian Munzlinger and his staff for a successful campaign.

In his few final campaign trips Munzlinger showed up in Hannibal as well as Kirksville attempting to gain more support for the election. He has been a very reachable and visible candidate in this race and despite being up against the incumbent, those in the Munzlinger camp are confident that this race will be a close one.
