By Ricky Dana, Candidate for U.S. House – Missouri’s 4th District
Mark “Awful” Alford says he’s listening 👂 but his votes show the opposite. He’s not listening to Missouri farmers, families, or rural hospitals—he’s listening to donors and party bosses in D.C. 💸
Friends, I was born in Waverly and raised right here in the heart of rural Missouri. I’ve pulled calves 🐄, prepped fields 🌽, raised horses 🐎, and done the hard work that real Missourians know all too well. My opponent? He’s a Texan transplant who read a teleprompter in Kansas City suburbs and now pretends to understand us. That’s not Missouri Grown. That’s not Missouri Strong.
While Alford hides behind weekday “photo-op” county visits 📸, I’m gaining support in places that used to be deep red 🔴—because people know me. They know I’m running for them, not for a party.
His record proves the truth:
❌ Voted to cut farm subsidies.
❌ Voted against PBS & NPR.
❌ Voted for bills that are a death sentence for rural healthcare.
He rubber stamps everything the executive branch sends his way. He’s there for himself, not for you.
Our campaign is different. We’re grassroots 🌱. Funded by regular people. No super PAC strings attached.
I’ve already drafted legislation to expand rural urgent care clinics and fund mobile clinics 🚑. And I’ve worked on legislation for Missouri’s farm families—because our farmers feed America and the world 🌎. My proposals would strengthen safety nets for family farms, provide fairer competition rules against corporate ag monopolies, and ensure farmers get the assistance they need when crops fail from droughts or disasters.
Mike “Krooked” Kehoe may call this gerrymander a “redistricting to better reflect Missourians’ values” 🗺️—but if Kansas City is added to this district, it only strengthens our movement to unseat Alford. Because Missourians are ready for real representation, not another rubber stamp.
I am Missouri Born. Missouri Raised. Missouri Strong. 💪 Send me to Washington, and I’ll fight for every single one of you, regardless of party affiliation—because first and foremost, I answer to Missouri, not Washington insiders.
When farms and small towns win, Missouri wins. And on November 3, 2026 🗳️, together we’ll make Missouri prosper again.
⭐ Show-Me Leadership. Show-Me Results.
🗳️ No Rubber Stamps—Real Representation.
