Calloway is an amazing young man. He has an amazing depth and bredth of knowledge encompassing the issues facing not just his primarily african american constituents of the 70th district, but also other oppressed communties within the greater Saint Louis region. We could all benefit from someone with his experience in Jefferson City.

I’ve looked deeply at the candidates in this district (which covers UMSL). Calloway has been working hard. The other reps - Vernon Harlan and Roger Wilson don’t even compare. Take a look at the MEC filing on Harlan. He’s raised a lot of money - but over half of it goes to his cell phone and is written off as ‘charity’…..to me, that either means buying votes or buying items for himself at Walmart…WTF?…….And Wilson…Well if you want to take him seriously, the man has to step up and do some work in the district…. Granted it may be more about the ward endorsements in this area, but Calloway is an intelligent young man who would be a strong person to build the community strength of the 20+ municipalities representing the 70th district.

……just my 2 cents….

I have a lot of faith in this young man. He’s smart, talented, well spoken, ambitious, and hard working. I expect him to be a leader in the Missouri Democratic Party for some years to come. He’s got it all going.

Toni, I believe Calloway is running in the 71st district not the 70th. You may need to do more research. As a political operative I would think that you would know better than to make that mistake.

The Roger Wilson is the always candidate who uses some names but non endorse him. He is a Unity Pac candidate who is connected to the long time lawyer -crook Elbert Walton who took Berkley for $400,000 and counting and is now involved in taking the Northeast (Normandy) fire protection for a ride. Don’t be deceived. Check the articles in the post about his mentor Elbert Walton and the fact that his wife was disqualified from the ballot for nonpayment of taxes. It is not pretty.
