Robert Stephens

In Springfield, Missouri's third largest city, libertarians Tom Martz and Robert Stephens are running for the same general seat on the City Council. They were the top two finishers in a runoff primary in February. They will face off in the April election to see who joins libertarian Doug Burlison on the Springfield City Council. Doug Burlison was elected to the Springfield City Council in 2007.

This is another example where hard work in your local community has paid off at the ballot box. Several years ago Doug Burlison led a successful petition effort to force a state audit of the Springfield City finances. Subsequently over a million dollars was found missing from the City Clerk's office resulting in criminal prosecutions. Tom Martz helped found the Missouri Liberty Coalition, a non partisan local government watchdog group.

Jeff Foli

In Chillicothe, MO libertarians have another winnable election. Jeff Foli is running in a partisan race as a Libertarian for Councilman at large. Jeff was elected Mayor of Chillicothe in 2001 as a Libertarian.

In St. Louis, Robb Cunningham is running for Mayor as a Libertarian in a partisan race. Robb was the Libertarian candidate for the Missouri First Congressional District in 2008 where he received 13.1% of the vote in a two way race.

In 2007 Missouri elected three out of five libertarians running for local office. With two libertarians already assured of being elected and a third candidate in a winnable race Missouri could very well repeat with another three for five.
