"I will not be a strict conservative ideologue, Richard Monroe, candidate for the Seventh District Congressional seat currently held by Roy Blunt, told Jasper County voters tonight during the Farm Bureau Meet the Candidates.
Monroe, a federal prosecutor for 20 years and a former chief assistant in the Greene County Prosecuting Attorney's office said, "We have an economy on the verge of recession. We have a federal budget out of control."
To help tackle those issues, Monroe said, he would offer "a strong, independent voice."
A video of Monroe's speech will be available later tonight.
