Here’s the list of the 31 Missouri legislators who announced their support for former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee, who’s a Republican candidate for president.
He was in Missouri to campaign, while awaiting the results of Florida, where he ended up in fourth place. (Huckabee said in an interview that he wasn’t surprised by his Fla. finish, and that he expected to do much better on Feb. 5 in southern and Midwestern states.)
We’ll link to the P-D story on Huckabee’s visit, and the activities of other Republican hopefuls, when it’s posed.
In the meantime, here’s the list of the pro-Huckabee legislators:
Missouri Faith and Family Chair, Senator John Loudon
State campaign chairman, Sen. Delbert Scott
Representative Jim Avery
Representative Brian Baker
Senator Matt Bartle
Representative Mark Bruns
Representative Wayne Cooper
Representative Cynthia Davis

The release emphasizes some of Huckabee’s key views:
” ‘I want to turn the nonsense of our tax system to the common sense of what’s often called the FairTax,’ Huckabee said. He also discussed being pro-life was well as his stance on homeland security, terrorism and the economy.”
