Caleb Jones for State Rep!!!

Robert's friend from Law School, Caleb Jones, ran for State Rep in district 117 this past election. His dad was formally the State Rep for their district but couldn't run because he had reached his term limit. So his son, Caleb, decided to run. Robert and I were invited to his Election Night Party. I have always wondered what these people do on the night of the election. Are they sitting at home watching the results on the TV? Does someone call them to let them know they won? Well, Robert and I were fortunate enough to see it in action this past Tuesday. We drove down to district 117 (Centertown, MO-the boonies), to a hall and watched the results on TV with a whole group of people who were also cheering for Caleb. Caleb, on the other hand, was on his phone almost the whole night, probably getting up to the minute poll results. We watched Caleb win by a margin of more than 2:1. Here are a few pictures from the night.

These were the centerpieces at all the tables.

CONGRATULATIONS Caleb, State Representative District 117!!!
