Craig O'Dear For U.S. Senate - Full Interview

This year the midterm elections are all too often referred to as the latest in a series of “most important elections in our lifetime.” Although it’s safe to say that it’s wise to treat every election as the most important one, we think that statements like these demonstrate the level of polarization between Democrats and Republicans. That’s why we are very pleased to bring you the interview we had with Craig O’Dear, 2018 Independent candidate for U.S. Senate in Missouri. Craig spoke passionately with us about the reasons why he is driven to give the people of Missouri a way to get back to their tradition as a state that no party could rely on to be red or blue. He talked with us about his experiences working with nonpartisan reform organizations such as Unite America and about PurpleState’s efforts to provide a multimedia alternative to what the reformers are calling the Political Industrial Complex.
