A southwest Missouri Legislator has thrown her hat into the ring to be Missouri's next Governor.
In a video message posted Sunday morning on her Facebook Page, 132nd State Representative Crystal Quade announces her run for the governorship in 2024. Quade, a Democrat and currently the House Minority Leader, was first elected to the House representing part of Greene County and the Springfield area in 2016.
