MSTA endorses 64 great education candidates
Date:
9/19/2012
As public education continues to be under attack in Jefferson City, it's more important than ever to vote for candidates who understand the issues and support public education.
MSTA's Legislative Impact Committee has endorsed 64 candidates for the Nov. 6 general election. Candidates for the General Assembly receive endorsements based on their understanding and support of issues important to Missouri educators and students, and their voting records and positions on issues related to MSTA, among other things.
A board of 10 oversees the committee, whose members decide which candidates and education initiatives merit the association's support. For more information about the committee, click here.
Endorsed candidates, along with their districts, are listed below. You will be able to read candidate biographies and get more information in the digital version of our 2012 Election Guide (available online mid-October).
