Stephen Webber is impressive as a dedicated strong campaigner with a knowledge and grasp of the issues facing the 23rd District and Missouri. He will serve the District well and be a strong advocate for education and health care, and will carry on the work of Jeff Harris healing the State after four years of the folly guided by Matt Blunt.

On May 23rd Cande Iveson and Stephen Webber met with the public in a well attended Democracy for Missouri sponsored candidate forum at the Carpenters Hall. Both of these candidates are good progressive Democrats. Stephen Webber won the endorsement vote taken at the next full membership meeting garnering 62% of the vote which was conducted using an Instant Runoff process with "No endorsement", Cande Iveson, and Stephen Webber on the ballot.

Webber is the second local candidate to receive Democracy for Missouri's endorsement. Last month, Sean Spence, running for 25th District Representative received this endorsement.
