Ensign Ralston: [launching the rocket] Fire One!

Today, at the Missouri Ethics Commission:

…Now we could do it with conventional weapons, but that could take years and cost millions of lives. No, I think we have to go all out. I think that this situation absolutely requires a really futile and stupid gesture be done on somebody’s part…

The television ads are everywhere in the republican primary for the 31st Senate District. They’re on our television and we don’t even live in the district. Nothing exceeds like excess. The 8 Day Before Primary Election reports:

So far it’s been a very interesting day in Jefferson City (via the Missouri Secretary of State) as candidates file for office. In the State Senate:

State Senator – District 7

Democrat

Jason Holsman P.O. BOX 480572

KANSAS CITY MO 64145 2/28/2012

11:05 a.m.

Republican

Jane Cunningham 1602 TIMBERLAKE MANOR PKY

CHESTERFIELD MO 63017 2/28/2012

12:43 p.m.

Senator Jane Cunningham (r) is very, very unhappy. She filed in the 7th District. Does that mean she thinks the latest iteration of redistricting will get tossed and she’ll gain the top ballot position when (if) her district on the other side of the state reverts to its original number?

State Senator – District 21

Republican

Mike McGhee 5538 GRUBB RD

ODESSA MO 64076 2/28/2012

2:04 p.m.

David Pearce 123 SE 180TH RD

WARRENSBURG MO 64093 2/28/2012

3:46 p.m.

Okay, that makes this a primary between a birther who loaned his campaign $100,000.00 and one of the last republican moderates (and that’s relatively speaking) serving in Jefferson City.

Decisions, decisions.

State Senator – District 31

Republican

Scott Largent 1904 RUSTIC WAY

120th Legislative District, General Assembly, missouri, Scott Largent, Zack Maggi

Democratic party candidate Zac Maggi is challenging incumbent republican Representative Scott Largent, one of the republican party’s Johnson County triplets, in the 120th Legislative District. The republican triplets – Largent, Denny Hoskins, and Mike McGhee – are so named because their districts encompass parts of the county and because they vote in reliable lockstep with the republican leadership in the General Assembly.

Zac Maggi filed his report with the Missouri Ethics Commission on October, 13, 2009

Ah, yes. Representative Scott Largent (r), PACman. Political action committees don’t vote. True, they can and do spend money, lots of it, but they can’t vote. Yet.
