Mohn Running for State House in Kansas
Former St. Louisan Corey Mohn is running for the Kansas House of Representatives. Mohn was among the many Democratic candidates for U.S. Congress in 2004, along with Jeff Smith and winner Russ Carnahan. In 2005 Mohn served as my #1 campaign worker and co-manager when I ran for the Board of Alderman. He issued the following press release today:
SHAWNEE, KS – Corey Mohn, candidate for the Kansas House of Representatives in the 39th District, announced today that he is geared up and ready for the upcoming general election campaign. Mohn will be taking on conservative Owen Donohoe in an election to be held November 7.
“I am ready to continue taking my message of moderate, rational values to the voters of the 39th District, whether they are Democrats, Republicans, or Independents,” Mohn stated. “Our citizens have been privileged to have enjoyed the moderate leadership of Ray Cox over the past 14 years. I am convinced that the citizens of our area want to continue to have a representative that will listen to their desires and concerns with an open mind. They want a leader who will be willing to work with all parties, including the governor and members of the Kansas House and Senate from both sides of the aisle. Consensus building is essential for good government, and I look forward to the opportunity to bring our district together. Partisan politics and staunch ideologies must be put aside in order to foster understanding and, ultimately, effective government.”
Corey Mohn is a city planning consultant and co-owner of Planning Initiatives, an economic development consulting firm. He lives in Shawnee.
Corey is engaged to be married this Labor Day weekend. The honeymoon will obviously involve door-to-door visits, producing mailers and squaring off with his conservative Republican challenger. Corey is an amazing worker and very passionate about the issues affecting most of us on a daily basis.
Best of luck Corey!
