VOTE AUGUST 4TH
Cass County Democratic Central Committee Recommendations for the August 4 PrimaryThe August 4 Primary Election is TUESDAY, and there are important decisions to make at every level of the ballot. The Cass County Democratic Central Committee has carefully considered the constitutional amendments and local races and is proud to share our recommendations. PLEASE PULL A DEMOCRATIC BALLOT! Statewide Constitutional Amendments
Cass County Democratic Candidate EndorsementsThe Cass County Democratic Central Committee is proud to endorse the following Democratic candidates:
These candidates have earned our confidence, and we encourage Democrats across Cass County to support them on August 4. The 4th Congressional District Is Within ReachThe Cass County Democratic Central Committee has chosen not to endorse in the Democratic primary for Missouri's 4th Congressional District. Our focus is on supporting our nominee and uniting behind them once the votes are counted. What we will say is this: This primary matters. With the new congressional district boundaries, Missouri's 4th Congressional District is finally within reach. National polling is showing a 10–12% swing toward Democrats, the latest polling has Trump underwater in Missouri (-4), and the new 4th Congressional District is now within 8–10% of being Democratic. That doesn't guarantee victory, but it does mean we have a real opportunity. To seize that opportunity, we need a nominee who is prepared to fight for all of us. Not just our urban communities or our rural communities, but every town, every county, and every family that calls the 4th District home. On August 5, there will no longer be "my candidate" or "your candidate." There will only be our nominee. The path won't be easy, but for the first time in a long time, it's a path that actually exists. If we unite behind our nominee, do the work, and stay focused on November, we have an opportunity to put a competitive Democratic campaign on the ballot and give voters a real choice. Most importantly, make a plan to vote on August 4. Every race matters. Every amendment matters. Every vote matters. Let's show Missouri that Cass County Democrats are ready to do the work AND ready to win. Voting Questions? Check here - https://www.casscountydemocrats.com/voting_faqs |
