Kunce Hits Valentine

Democrat Lucas Kunce had an ad up on the air that attacks Trudy Busch Valentine for participating in the Veiled Prophet Society – a strange upper-class rite of passage in St. Louis.  See the ad here.

Kunce added Bill Clay to his list of endorsements.  See it here“We’ve never had a Senate candidate who knows our struggles so well and cares for everyday people like Lucas Kunce does…”

One MOScouter: Everyone has short attention spans, but I think it will have a lasting effect on [Hawley’s] ambitions.

We’ll see…
