Luetkemeyer does not have a Democratic opponent this election cycle.
David Rosman, a columnist for the Missourian, thinks that the most common reason the Democratic party did not supply a candidate because there are rumors of Missouri losing a congressional seat, currently Luetkemeyer’s seat, and no one wanted to serve this seat and for only one term.
We think another important reason Luetkemeyer doesn’t have an opponent is because he has proven himself as a good representative for our district. He has also won the support of many influential and important organizations that have gladly funded his campaigns.
In the breakdown of how Luetkmeyer has received money, his top supporters have been those effected by the bills he helped pass. The many organizations, we would assume, continue to support him because he follows through on his promises or he exemplifies their values.
Luetkemeyer voted “yes”on a bill that passed appropriations for agriculture, rural development, and the food and drug administration in 2009.
This is just one vote that shows Luetkemeyer has accurately been representing the wishes of his constituents and his financial supporters since he has been in term.
