Delegate Spotlight: Rich Magee
St. Louis Post-Dispatch
Throughout the Democratic and Republican conventions, we’ll be providing short profiles of local delegates.
Here is another “Delegate Spotlight.”
Name: Rich Magee
Age: 54
Hometown: Glendale
Political experience: Mayor of Glendale, chairman of St. Louis County GOP
Road to convention: Elected delegate from district level committee. Has never been to a convention, but always wanted to go. “When you’re in politics, and you’ve worked in politics for a long time, going to the national convention is the ultimate.”
Highlight so far: Hearing First Lady Laura Bush and would-be First Lady Cindy McCain speak Monday. “A tremendous experience.”
Looking forward to: The appearance of vice presidential nominee Sarah Palin. “Can’t wait…That’s got to be No. 1″
