RE: Austin Petersen, Runner-Up for LP Presidential Nomination, Announces He Will Run For US Senate As A Republican
I've crossed paths with Austin before. He's a good dude. I was a loyal supporter of his presidential campaign in 2016. And despite not residing in Missouri, he'll have my support in his Senate campaign.
He's been getting some considerable support across party lines as evident by the many phone calls he made prior to his decision. Plus, some of Missouri's heavy hitters (Wagner and possibly Hawley) have stepped away making his prospects a little better.
Yeah, I've met him a couple of times. He's got a real shot at actually winning that seat as a Republican. If he gets the full support of the GOP early then it would certainly catapult him quickly.
