Brock Olivo has never voted, records show
St. Louis Post-Dispatch
Brock Olivo wants supporters to do for him something he has never done: vote.
Olivo, the former Mizzou football star now running for Congress, has never voted before in an election, public records show.
Reached today, Olivo confirmed that he has never cast a ballot, in Missouri or anywhere else.
“I’m a recovered apathetic,” Olivo, 31, said, adding that “I am first to admit that I was wrong.”
Olivo recently joined a crowded crop of candidates seeking to replace Kenny Hulshof, who himself is making a run for governor.
Records show that all of Olivo’s announced opponents are frequents voters.
Look for more on this story in tomorrow’s paper.
Olivo: Star rusher never voted
#10–Vaughn: I fear you need to do some basic research. Steve Gaw is hardly ”bought and paid for by utility companies.” He was on a Commission that regulated utilities after he left the Missouri legislature (where he was Speaker of the House I might add). If anything, on the Public Service Commission, he was the utilities’ nemesis, holding their feet to the fire and questioning the costs they passed on to customers. Please do not confuse the voters of the 9th District with your incorrect information about the candidates.
