“This is truly a great show of support from some of the hardest working, most dedicated, and most effective elected officials in the state. The citizens of Jefferson County are well served because of their hard work and dedication,” Severin said. “We’re going to win this race because of the support of these fine public servants and because the people of the 116th district want a Pro-Trump, Pro-Life, and Pro-2nd Amendment State Representative working for them in Springfield.

Vernon Mayor John Lewis, Jefferson County Board Chairman Cliff Lindemann, Jefferson County Board Vice Chairman Steve Draege, Jefferson County Sheriff Jeff Bullard, Jefferson County Treasurer Bob Watt, Jefferson County Circuit Clerk Randy Pollard, Bluford Mayor Mike Bullard, and County Board Members Fisher Overstreet, Wayne Hicks, John Howard, Adam Ortgiessen, and Jefferson Republican County Party Chairman Mark Marlow.
