Black leaders endorse McCaskill
Source: St Louis Post Dispatch
Black voters in St. Louis who listen to urban radio are being subjected to a barrage of misinformation about the U.S. Senate race on November 6, but black leaders are clear in their support of incumbent U.S. Senator Claire McCaskill (D-Missouri).
"Claire McCaskill has stood with me in defense of Medicare, Medicaid, Social Security and the right to vote," said U.S. Rep. Wm. Lacy Clay (D-Missouri). "Holding her seat is essential, not just for Missouri, but for our nation."
The national interest that Clay referenced involves the Republican majorities in both houses of Congress and their enabling of President Trump's destructive policies. Both national parties, as well as national media, have focused on this race because its outcome could be critical to whether Republicans maintain control of the Senate. McCaskill's Republican opponent, Missouri Attorney General Josh Hawley, has been unwavering in his support of Trump.
"I've met with her opponent, Josh Hawley, and he did not give me false hope, or any hope, that he would support my issues," said the Rev. Darryl Gray, a police accountability protest leader and former Kansas state senator. "He was clear and has been consistent that he would follow the lead of the current president. That alone was enough for me to fully support McCaskill."
