McGrew pins campaign hopes on Joplin Globe

While other Joplin R-8 Board of Education candidates are putting their money into signs, Shawn McGrew is spending it with the Joplin Globe.

According to the eight-days-before-election reported filed moments ago with the Missouri Ethics Commission, McGrew spent $1,982.50 with the Joplin Globe, while spending $993.01 for signs from Sign Designs and $50 for Facebook ads.

McGrew received $2,350 in contributions since the 40-days-before report, with most of it coming from his fellow employees at Freeman Health.

Contributors listed on the report include the following:

James Boyle, Carl Junction, Freeman Health, $1,500
Paula Baker, Joplin, Freeman Health, $500
Richard Schooler, Seneca, Freeman Health, $100,
John and Nancy Good, Joplin, Waco Title, $100

The report shows that McGrew had $1,050 at the end of the last reporting period and spent $3,025.51, leaving him with $374.49. That amount has since been augmented with $723.06 from the secretive Joplin Progress Committee.

Regardless of the election results, I hope one day he's able to find the people who beat him up right before that photo was taken.

Best of luck, Mr. McGrew.
