Today Todd Richardson
announces he is formally seeking the nomination for Missouri’s 8th
Congressional District. This
announcement comes after announcing his intention to explore the option last
month.
“After spending the last
few weeks travelling around southeast Missouri and meeting with members of the
8th District Congressional Committee, I have been encouraged by the
support I have been receiving. My wife
Amber and I thought long and prayed hard about this decision and we are proud
to announce that I am seeking the nomination.” Richardson said.
Todd continued, “I have
spent the last month talking with family, friends and constituents about this
decision. After traveling the district
and meeting with dozens of committee members, I have been honored and humbled
by the level of support I have received.”
“My father taught me a
long time ago not to do anything you weren’t fully committed to and I believe
that I am the right candidate for southeast Missouri. I was born here and raised here and I have a
tremendous amount of passion for the 8th congressional district, but
mostly, I want my son Sawyer to have the same opportunities that my generation had.
We need more young, aggressive
conservatives in Washington fighting to cut spending, defend our family farms
and get this country back on the right track.”
Todd is a second term
State Representative from Poplar Bluff.
He represents Butler and Dunklin counties in the State Legislature.
