of Alderman Races

The unending winter of snow and cold weather is keeping candidates from kicking off their door to door efforts to get elected.

Since it is too cold to launch a regular campaign, some have taken their campaign to voters via the internet.

The most notable candidate to take this path is Ward 3 Aldermanic candidate Morris Melloy.

Melloy started a Facebook Page named Raytown Community Awareness five years ago. It has gained a healthy following numbering over 3000 regular subscribers.

Other campaigns, who asked us to hold off on any announcement, are known to have plans in the works to launch social media sights in the near future.

One candidate has already reached out to let the public share what is on his mind.

Ward 4 Alderman candidate Rodney Fritz told us: “Crime affects all of us. In Raytown we must send a message that criminal behavior will not be tolerated and that violators will be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.”

“This includes traffic law violators who speed, drive recklessly and believe they do not need to have a valid license plate on their vehicle.

“If we fail to enforce our laws to the fullest possible extend our city will become a target for those who believe they can ignore the law in Raytown.”
