Karl Rove headlining Ashcroft funder

ST. LOUIS – Karl Rove, Republican strategist and former senior advisor and deputy chief of staff to President George W. Bush, will be headlining a private fundraiser for Republican secretary of state nominee Jay Ashcroft in Kansas City on September 21.

“As Secretary of State, Jay Ashcroft will work to modernize and streamline Missouri’s business laws to keep pace with the changing economy and attract new jobs,” Ashcroft Campaign Manager Steele Shippy said. “His plan to fight for Missouri jobs has resonated with voters across Missouri, and now, we’re excited that his campaign has attracted national interest and support. It’s evidence that he is a next generation leader with the right experience to get our state back on track.”

Ashcroft will face former news anchor Robin Smith in November.

The fundraiser is a private event. For more information, contact the campaign.
