Poll shows Eric Greitens leading in Republican race for Missouri governor

Source: KMBC

Greitens was the main target of his three opponents during a radio debate last week in St. Louis. A day after the new poll came out, Brunner’s campaign launched a new commercial aimed at him.

“Eric Greitens: Not who you think he is. Just another liberal,” the commercial says.

The poll showed former Missouri House Speaker Catherine Hanaway with 16 percent support among those surveyed. Three-time Lt. Gov. Peter Kinder has 12 percent support, according to the poll.

With three weeks before the Aug. 2 vote, the poll found 21 person of those polled are still undecided.

Would he be the easiest to beat?

Missouri is a swing state; we could really use a Democratic governor there after the next census.

...each candidate trying to shoot more guns and have more Family and Faith than the next one.

Greitens' whole campaign philosophy is "I was a Navy Seal!" while Hanaway brags about getting more guns in more pockets and promising to defund Planned Parenthood.

And guns! Did I mention guns?

Hilarious, also, that any one of these loons would call one other "just another liberal".
