Former Charlie Baker Administration Official Running For Congress As A Democrat
July 12, 2021
Ben Samuels worked in Governor Charlie Baker’s administration. Now he’s running for Congress in Missouri — as a Democrat.
The 30-year-old worked as the director of special projects in the Baker administration. However, now he wants to challenge incumbent U.S. Representative Ann Wagner (R-Missouri) in the state’s Second Congressional District.
“Anti-voting rights, anti-democracy, election denialism has become table stakes for the vast majority of elected Republicans, like Ann Wagner,” Samuels told the St. Louis Post-Dispatch.
Samuels reportedly spent some of his childhood in St. Louis, but didn’t go to high school there. He just registered to vote in the state in June and has never voted in the state before.
New to NewBostonPost? Conservative media is hard to find in Massachusetts. But you’ve found it. Now dip your toe in the water for two bucks — $2 for two months. And join the real revolution.
