Our transparent approach to voter education
Discover the rigorous process we use to research political candidates and key races. We are committed to empowering voters with critical facts, guiding you to the best candidates, and exposing those whose record is different than what they represent.
In short, we meet candidate misrepresentations and concealment head-on, in hopes that you can make a confident decision on election day.
Focusing on critical races
We strategically narrow our focus to critical races that could determine the Republican majority in the Missouri legislature. Our aim is to highlight candidates whose records are essential for voters to know, ensuring informed decisions. For example, we've chosen Missouri House Dist. 110 because one of the candidates, Niles Stephens, has a contemptuous record he's trying to hide from voters.
Unveiling sound judgment and accountability
To assess candidates, we delve into and rely on their voting records, public statements, any criminal history, public records and known political relationships.
This comprehensive review reveals facts that show the candidate's true character and positions, providing voters with the full picture.
This is not to say that there isn't more information available - particualrly in the case of Niles Stephens. In fact, there is a significant amount of additional adverse information concerning him. However, we intentionally omitted this material because, while there is reliable support for it, there is no supporting public documentation yet available.
Verifying facts with precision
Our commitment to accuracy means every piece of information shared is meticulously sourced. We rely exclusively on verifiable public records, including court documents, official voting records, published news reports from reputable mainline outlets, and other publicly available evidence including information provided by the candidates themselves, ensuring transparency and trustworthiness for our readers.
