It’s turning in to a big state and local elected official party on the Republican side, with Republican Lt. Governor Pete Kinder, and Republican House Speaker Rod Jetton potentially throwing their hats into the ring. With potentially these two state and local Republican leaders in the race, Republicans have a great chance of electing another future leader from the ranks supported by the RSLC.

Lt. Governor Peter Kinder, also a republican, said he would throw his hat in the ring as a candidate.Kinder’s officer issued the following statement: “As Lt. Governor and President Pro Tem I have brought fundamental change to state government. I have served as a change agent my entire career and look forward to continuing my positive leadership. Missourians deserve a strong economy to create new higher paying jobs, a world class education, and affordable and accessible health care. I am the right person to deliver the positive change Missourians deserve.
I am heartened by the outpouring of support and I will formally announce my plans for Governor in the coming weeks.”
