(KBIA) -
Four candidates for Missouri Governor met yesterday at MU for the first debate leading up to the November elections. The debate was largely cordial, with Republican Kenny Hulshof and Democrat Jay Nixon headlining the event.(Hulshof) "You deserve a government that reflects the values of our people, responsive to our needs and responsible with your tax money...(Nixon) Our state's at a crossroads, and the people of Missouri will decide this November whether we continue with the same failed policies, or whether we change direction and begin moving forward again."
Libertarian candidate Andrew Finkenstadt promised that his administration would leave Missourians and their pocketbooks alone, and Constitution Party candidate Greg Thompson said he would protect Missourians by bringing God's wisdom into all his decisions.
