Former Missouri GOP Official and Political Staffer Launches Campaign in Saint Charles County
Saint Peters, MO – Philip Christofanelli has announced today his intention to run for State Representative in Missouri’s 105th District based in Saint Charles County. The district, which is currently represented by the Honorable Mark Parkinson who is now running for Missouri Senate, covers the eastern half of the City of Saint Peters.
“Missouri is falling behind, ranking 47th in job growth and losing more jobs last quarter than any other state in the country. We need to turn this state around by cutting job killing regulations, reforming our tax code, and creating an environment that encourages small business development,” said Christofanelli, who started his own company at 23 to sell live and automated political telemarketing services to candidates and campaigns across the country.
Christofanelli also chimed in about the ongoing chaos at the University of Missouri.
“Instead of catering to the demands of radical left-wing activists, our publicly funded university system should be focused on equipping students with 21st century skills that will allow our state to better compete for jobs,” Christofanelli said. “It must be clear that our universities are not governed by mob rule, but rather by those who were duly appointed through Missouri’s elected representatives.”
At 26, Christofanelli brings a thoughtful, solutions-based, conservative approach to policy. You can learn more about Phil by visiting his website.
Phil Christofanelli was first elected to the Missouri Republican State Committee at 21 years old, and was later appointed to the State Executive Committee under both Chairman Ed Martin and Chairman John Hancock. Phil has worked for candidates and campaigns in Missouri and across the country, most recently serving as the Press Secretary and official spokesman to Rep. Dan Benishek (MI-01). He is a pro-life, pro-gun conservative who is committed to small, effective government. He resides in Saint Peters, Mo.
