Voters in Missouri’s 7th District Say Incumbent Blunt Not Focused on “People Like Me” SPRINGFIELD, MO. – By 47% to 41%, likely voters in Missouri's 7th Congressional District say incumbent Republican Congressman Roy Blunt is not focused on the needs of "people like me," according to a poll conducted by Voter Roll Call for the Monroe for Congress Committee. 72% of Democrats, 59% of Independents, 57% of Moderates and 59% of those who make less than $40,000 a year say Blunt is not focused on their needs. While 47% of voters in the District say Blunt should be re-elected, almost as many, 41%, say it is time for a change. 65% in the district say the Economy in Southwest Missouri is weak. 47% say that things in Southwest Missouri are off on the wrong track, while only 36% say things are headed in the right direction. A majority of Moderates and a plurality of Independents say they will vote for the Democrat in November. “The writing on the wall is clear”, stated Democratic Congressional Candidate, Richard Monroe. “After twelve years of partisanship and attacks, southwest Missourians are looking for a Congressman who will work across party lines to end the gridlock and make real progress.” Richard Monroe recently retired from the United States Attorney’s Office after twenty years of honorable service as a Federal Prosecutor. Monroe went on to point out that earlier this year Representative Blunt voted against establishing an Office of Congressional Ethics. Continued Monroe, “as a Federal Prosecutor, I dealt with a broad range of Federal crimes from health care fraud to drug enforcement, immigration enforcement to financial frauds, murder and everything in between. Not only will I support restoring integrity and ethics to Congress, I’ll fight to restore them everyday I’m in Washington.” Voter Roll Call is the non-media polling arm of SurveyUSA. --30--
