The Warren County Democratic Club welcomed Eric Mayer and Bill Stinson at the May 9 meeting.

    Mr. Mayer is a candidate for the United States House of Representatives– Missouri's newly configured 3rd Congressional District– opposing Republican incumbent, Congressman Blaine Luetkemeyer.

    Mr. Stinson is seeking election to the Missouri House of Representatives in the 63rd District which includes parts of Warren and St. Charles counties.  Stinson's Republican opponent will be determined in the August 7 primary election.

    Each candidate spoke about the issues they plan to focus on in their campaigns. Eric Mayer stressed his desire to find common ground on national issues to end unproductive legislative stalemates.  He also talked about the need for common sense campaign finance reform.  Stinson echoed the need for reform to restrict large, anonymous money sources from steering elections.
