Democratic candidate for Missouri's 2nd District
Happily voted for @fpwellman.bsky.social today in MO-2. My vote in this extremely gerrymandered district hasn’t really mattered in a while but suddenly I have hope it does.
Also voted Yes on 6 and No on the rest of the statewide horseshit trickery on the ballot.
Hear from Riley on Team Wellman about why he’s so fired up to vote. Go make your voice heard, Missouri!
This is my “Must Watch” sleeper race for Tuesday night. Fred Wellman’s a vet, who made the bold choice to take on an entrenched Republican incumbent. It was an “impossible” race and he has made it possible. If he wins, @fpwellman.bsky.social will give the best measure of the next American politics.
This might be the last time you’ll be hearing from me before Election Day, so here are a few final words before we win this thing. A year ago, I launched my candidacy for Missouri’s 2nd District because I was fed up with the way things were going in Washington D.C. Trump was selling out working folks to his...
That's the ratio that keeps me up at night.
I’m going to wake up every day ready to represent 759,000 people in #MO02. Not just the people who donated to my campaign. Not just the people who share my politics. All 759,000. Whether you voted for me or not, I’ll work for you. That’s what public service is supposed to mean.

5 days until election day and we are running for the finish line. We have been working for a year to get here and we are close now. Larry Sabato just moved us to a Toss Up. Polls have us up. Nate Silver's model has this as one of the most competitive seats in the country.

Six days until Election Day, and apparently I’m the crazy one. I’ve been getting a good laugh out of Ann Wagner’s latest closing argument. She’s been making the media rounds telling voters they have a choice between “common sense and crazy.” Apparently, I’m the crazy one. That’s a hell of a thing coming from someone...
No one can deny the strength of this people-powered campaign anymore. I’m aware the polls can be wrong. I know to take numbers with a grain of salt. The only true poll that matters is the one folks go to on Election Day. But I can’t deny what we’re seeing is nothing short of remarkable. The first poll was from the...
Nate Silver is showing my race as the most competitive in the United States today. We have steadily grown our race and now we are 8 days away. Would love your help to take us across the finish line.
If you were waiting for your sign to donate to an insurgent campaign for Congress in Missouri...this is your sign. I'm current polling 5 points ahead of 14 yr incumbent Ann Wagner in a seat held by the GOP for 34 years. I need you now. We can take this across the finish line and change Missouri.
Ann Wagner and her outside dark money can attack me all day but it still doesn't answer the fundamental question: Where is Ann? Where has she been while prices skyrocket? As corruption explodes? Amidst the chaos? It's not about me. It's about 14 yrs of hiding from her constituents. I'm not hiding.

Hancock & Kelley: Where’s Ann Wagner? ; Illinois governor debate; Missouri auditor race
It was another Sunday morning of sometimes heated but always civil political debate on Hancock and Kelley for Sunday, Oct. 18, 2026.
No excuses. No more doubts. This campaign was built to win. Here we are. After more than a year of hard work, thousands of conversations with voters, and a whole lot of people stepping up when it mattered, we’ve made it. Early voting starts TODAY in Missouri. When I launched this campaign, I knew we had a hell of a...
I’ve said from Day 1 “we’re not done yet.” I’ve watched Ann Wagner attack and smear me. I’m focused on one thing. Beating her and going to DC to fight the out of control costs, immeasurable corruption, and constant chaos that she has participated in gleefully while ignoring her constituents needs.
Asking for money is not my favorite, nor is it what I do best When I first created this Substack, I did so with the intention of building a people-powered movement built on the value of service and the importance of maintaining our democracy.

MO-02 voters, please support Fred. He will work for you.

Just a great evening with the best of our community.
Great to spend last night with the Professional Fire Fighters of Eastern Missouri, IAFF Local 2665, in St. Peters. In Congress, I’ll fight to make sure our firefighters have the staffing, equipment, and health care they need. They’ve got our backs. I’ll always have theirs. #Missouri #UnionStrong
