You can listen to and engage with voters all you want. You can speak honestly and illuminate your voters’ real life concerns with actual facts and pragmatic solutions. Apparently, that’s not enough to win. You need a majority.
Still, those 3,070 votes were well worth the effort.

What’s happening is that Missourians are telling people like you to go away. Go bother someone in California.

It’s easy for the folks in the Missouri GOP to point at folks like me and laugh and tell us we’re going to lose.
All that does is create solidarity. You can try to kick us, but you can’t keep us down. There’s something happening in Missouri. #LFG
Jean Evans @mojeanevans
Meet Jess. She’s fought hard to keep schools shut down and businesses closed. And now she wants your vote to do more of the same.

[…]
I know you keep up with me, girl. I’m not teaching this year. I’m running for state representative. Just trying to keep my kid’s school open while y’all tell her to get in the field while listening to books on tape. You know…the model you proposed for rural students?
Speaking of ratios, some of the responses to Jean Evans (r):
Malarkey!
We see what you did there.
Jess Piper is a rural educator who wants all students, including our rural students, to receive a quality public education. She has obviously not fought to keep schools closed. People are tired of others lying about where people running for political office stand on issues.
Jean, be honest, your work in education promotions privatization of schools, not support of public schools.
Jess is the voice we need in the state legislature. Practical experience dealing with decreased school funding, neglect of rural infrastructure and lobbyists destruction of family farms. She gives me hope
You are obsessed with her lol
More like fear.
Jean, you might want to sit this one out. Jess will go toe to toe with you and you’ll lose.
Meet Jean.
She’s OK with forcing schools to cut their curricula to 4-days a week to fund tax breaks for the wealthy, but trolls people who supported public health protocols protecting students, customers & employees during the pandemic.
Jean’s a hypocrite.
Don’t be like Jean.
Jean, meet our friend Ratio
Heh. We noticed.
Person that wants public education to fail says what?
And we LOVE her for it. Americans don’t want the fascism you’re pushing Jean.
Don’t be like Jean. Jean is sad and bored.
You are a liar, disgraceful. You do not have Missouri citizens in your best interest
She is being paid. That is what matters to Jean.
Huh? I’ve been following Jess for a while… her messaging seems to be about keeping rural schools open 5 days a week. Are you resorting back to talking points from 2 years ago? The world has changed, Jean.
Meet Jean. She has 45,000 fewer followers than Jess. If Jess has 48,000 followers, how many does Jean have?
Well, would you look at that. Us teachers can turn anything into a math problem [….]
We see what you did there.
As I recall Jess taught during the pandemic, in person. She was a brave frontline worker. I have nothing but respect for her and her voice in our community. Thank you, Jess Piper!
You’re a sad, dishonest shill for the GOP.
Believing in public schools and wanting to be a responsible steward of our children’s health. Wanting to invest in rural children. What a concept! Republicans have failed.
The whole world was shutdown. Just stop.
What a load crap. Betsy Devos is the one that proposed keeping rural kids in the field for starters. Secondly, What schools actually shut down last year in Mo? None How many businesses actually shut down other than the first 2 weeks of the pandemic in Missouri?
Saaaay what? Girlfriend you need to cough up data before you roundhouse with parroting opinions. But then that would mean knowing how to research and vet information…which is taught in public schools by the very educators you are trying to cancel and defund. Sit down.
Petty twitter fight? Shouldn’t you be busy stealing public funds for private education capitalists. Or maybe just finding new arguments to ensure that children with special needs are setup to fail.
Pretty much.
You’re Jean. Whose whole existence is fighting to defund public schools and pack the pockets of elitists. And now she thinks her trolling on Twitter is cute. It’s not.
Pretty much.
Well, Jean. Congrats on the steaming pile of horse shit you just dumped on the internet.
Meet Jean. This morning someone shat in her Fascist Flakes. And now she wants your attention so she can fill the hate shaped hole in her soul.

The fact that Herschel Walker paid for an abortion surprises no one. Folks with money and means will always have the right to an abortion. When they pass abortion bans, they aren’t meant for powerful folks.
Piper for Missouri @piper4missouri
When you’re brave enough to put your hot takes on the web, but not brave enough to let folks comment […] One of Denny’s constituents tagged him in one of my FB posts just to lure him into a response since he won’t speak to his constituents. Very typical of MO GOP politicians.

Republicans in my state are running on “Make Missouri Great Again” which is cool, but they’re the ones who’ve been in control of Missouri for two decades, so… 7:58 AM · Oct 17, 2021 from Missouri, USA

Missouri voters: Okay, we voted to expand Medicaid. We voted to end gerrymandering. We voted against “Right to Work”. We passed local ordinances against CAFOs.
Jess Piper @EnglishTeach07
Here’s what I know after years in public education: teachers will be blamed for any perceived lack of learning during this pandemic. It’ll be “unions” or “lazy teachers” or “low standards”.

Hi, my name is Jess and I’m running for HD1 in Northwest MO. I’ve been told I can’t win, but I don’t play to lose—ever. I’m a mom, teacher, rural Missourian, and a fighter. I believe every Missourian deserves representation.

I believe in fully-funded schools in Missouri. I will fight for teacher salaries across the state and especially those in rural areas that are hard hit by teacher turnover. Rural kids deserve great schools and rural teachers deserve a livable salary.
I believe in common sense gun laws. I believe 2A. I am a gun owner and will fight for the rights of gun owners while understanding the responsibility that comes with ownership. We need universal background checks and safe storage requirements.
I believe in healthcare for all Missourians. I will fight for rural healthcare systems and make sure that all Missourians have access to affordable and quality healthcare. This starts with Medicaid expansion and keeping kids on the Medicaid role.
I will listen to and fight for all Missourians—our children, our seniors, our neighbors. Can you help me kickstart my campaign today with a donation? I’m so excited—help send me to Jeff City. Thank you!
