FREEDOM, INC. VICTORIES DOMINATE JACKSON COUNTY PRIMARY!!!

Tonight we witness history for Jackson County, Missouri. 

FREEDOM, INC. HAS LIKELY EARNED A MAJORITY ON THE JACKSON COUNTY LEGISLATURE WITH A STRING OF ENDORSEMENT VICTORIES TONIGHT!!!

Voting aftermath and an off-the-record quote from insiders . . .

"Freedom, Inc. has a majority on the courthouse. Jackson County now hosts the first majority minority legislature."

And so . . .

People of color will soon comprise more than half of the elected officials in Jackson County. 

This is significant given that the latest census shows us that whites total 70% of the county's racial makeup. 

And so, no matter your politics . . . This is a very real sign of progress for the voters of Jackson County. 

A few other key facts to note on with this post . . .

- Former Marine Megan Marshall absolutely TROUNCED incumbent Tony Miller - The property tax crisis and a lack of a base likely precipitated his downfall.  

- Daron McGee proved that grassroots political connections were far more important than social media or MSM mentions. 

- Donna Peyton's win is notable because she was up against a much younger opponent who has experience in politics and some financial support . . . Also, Zac Sweets is the best name in all of KC politics and we hope that he keeps up his involvement. Still . . . More than anyone else, Freedom, Inc. carried Ms. Peyton to the finish line. 

The postscript and something that can't be denied . . . 

Having recently celebrated their 60th anniversary, Freedom, Inc. stands as the most influential political organization in Kansas City.
