Well I’ll be voting for one of these two. No show Kehoe.
Kehoe doesn't want to be confronted with his bad voting record or the lies his campaign has been spewing. Ashcroft at least showed but he has failed at Sec of State so I can't support him for Governor. Eigel will get my vote.
I noticed several debate answers that were required by Ashcroft that Eigel has been running on. My vote is for Bill Eigel.
Eigel seems to have done well even with those shitlib moderators
Where's Mike? Hiding from the voters
Isn't this the evening that Kehoe attended a DEMOCRAT fundraiser or whatever it was?
You have had nearly a decade to deal with the issues you are complaining about. How did these problems get out of hand under your leadership. Time for a change?
sorry, but I'm not afraid of immigrants, I'm afraid of the politicians.
Strong performance from Ashcroft! I love that they included an empty podium for Kehoe to emphasize his absence.
These are the Republican candidates...😂😂😂😂😂
Both of these candidates are a joke
Bill Eigel 2024 Missouri Republican Governor!!!
I like both candidates it would be good for Missouri if they could work together after the race for the good of the State! Good debate tho!
Not even incest or rape? Missouri is insane.
Hm, I won't vote for either, have truths in their opening statements. Have a great night all.
Vote 🔵🔵🔵🔵
These are really left wing questions for a state that's not a left wing state. The lady who asked about studying diseases based on demographics doesn't understand DEI has nothing to do with that. She was trying to tie hiring and promotions to using demographic data to isolate medical issues and treatments. Totally unrelated.
I personally asked Jay Ashcroft at a fund raiser about keeping these referendums that update the Constitution on complex issues with language that is difficult for most voters to fully understand. Missouri has a Republican government and our legislators should be amending the Constitution as needed and then sending to the citizens to approve up or down. When I asked that question, Jay literally walked away from me and I took offense to that.
I thought the moderators were all doing a great job at the manor in which they handled the two candidates. Both candidates kept their composure. I felt Ashcroft seemed better at being detailed in his answers. Eigel is promising no tax, but didn't try to lay out an introduction of how he would begin that process.
Absolutely loved the traditional Family / Conservative values of both these candidates. Excellent debate !
Vote Bill Eigel 100%
Go Eigel. Can't believe Kehoe didn't show and tommorow he is at a Democrat fundraiser (w Cori Bush) !! Can't make this stuff up. Ashcroft would be a good consolation but we cannot have Kehoe.
What's the difference between an illegal alien and a person who is a citizen of another country who is here illegally?
There isn't, it's all platitudes, they want to make it sound like they are going to do more than they actually will, I don't know how they are going to presumably determine if someone is living here illegally though, this all sounds like it's gonna scare away foreign tourists which would in turn hurt the economy.
Mr. Ashcroft is transparent and won this debate!!! Kehoe no show, that's a disqualification to me, Bill is a little sketchy for not voting on things that would of bettered the lives of Missourians. 🤩 GO Jay Ashcroft!!!! He is people first!!!
Deadpool brought me here
Considering the FEC has identified that Missouri has "cleaned" voter roles and found thousands of voters that were on voter roles but could not be identified by the SSA by their SS#. I love Missouri and believe that the state government is our first best defense of the federal government.
No more IVF in Missouri. This is what Louisiana did.
Jay Ashcroft should have ran for Lieutenant Governor.
He needs some more practice.
And what's up with him saying were in the top 3 in Election Integrity.
It's simply not true, but he keeps quoting it anyway.
That's called a lie.
How do you tell who is legal and who isn't?
Your questions around PE licensure and someone having an engineering degree show either ill intent or ignorance on your part. Many practicing engineers do not have a PE license because it is not required in their area of practice. The test itself is very limited in what it tests.
Mr. Ashcroft is exactly right that having an engineering degree teaches a person to think logically. This is not to say a person without one cannot be logical, but a person with that degree has learned how to do it.
Why ill intent? It gives Ashcroft an opportunity to clarify his background here. I agree that not having the PE certification is a weak criticism.
39:00 - EV's already pay road taxes in Missouri. You have to buy a "special fuel vehicle sticker" that costs over 100 dollars. Every public charger adds several city taxes, several county taxes, and a state sales tax. Only charging at home lets you avoid that.
DEI is definitely earned it.
After watching this I would support either Eigel or Ashcroft. But not Kehoe, he didn’t even show up. Seems like a Rhino. But Ashcroft seems to know the laws better.
Can Jay Ashcroft sing like his daddy?
Vote Blue.
24:00 - This is such a distraction from what DEI is at the state level. In actuality, it is hiring an entire coterie of Vice Presidents, Associate Vice Presidents, Directors, Coordinators, and then a host of underlings for those people to supervise at every state university. At the same time, they are freezing faculty positions or cutting majors. It has nothing to do with what is researched or studied at any school.
1000 police for STL: I think he flubbed when he said will bring more police over from other blue states
ouch
Holy cow these moderators are worse than CNN
I don't agree with either of them on abortion. They need to get a bill that allows up to 12 weeks. If a child is viable outside the womb the state welfare needs to intervene.
It's all about control, they don't care about if the mom or the baby actually survives and comes out unscathed.
Are you going to properly train these new officers? Or will this be more murderers as we saw in the Sonya Massey case?
He'll hire them then wash his hands of the whole matter until someone else gets shot then probably blame it on the victim again... I'm sick of predictable cycles of power abuse.
Mr. Keho probably didn't show up because he probably felt that he would not get a fair share of the debate time...
He is not honest is why he did not show. He is buying your vote. Don't let him
no, it's because he has so much big donor money he feels that he doesn't have to debate.
Go Eigel! We want paper ballots, hand counting & no machines!
