Local Republicans open their election headquarters in St. Joseph Saturday for the 2022 General Election.
Buchanan County Republican Central Committee chair Steve Greiert says it’s important to have a local headquarters.
“In the past when we’ve done this, we’ve had quite a big run on election signs and people asking about the positions of candidates,” Greiert tells KFEQ/St. Joseph Post.
Greiert says it’s important to have a local headquarters, especially in a crucial year for the party.
“You never underestimate your opponents and everything, but we’re very confident that given the circumstances in the country regarding the inflation and the affect that the open border has had on Missouri and all sorts of bread-and-butter issues I think the Republicans have a better understanding of how to run and how to govern than do the Democrats,” Greiert says. “So, I’m very confident we’re going to do well in the fall.”
Greiert says as long as the Republican Party gets its base to the polls in November, its candidates should prevail.
“The Republicans have done pretty well in the last six or eight years in Buchanan County. We want to continue to do the same thing.”
The headquarters will be located at 1343 Village Drive in St. Joseph.
The Grand Opening will be held Saturday between 11am and 2pm.
