Mat Clark Joins the race for 130th

I see this morning that Mat Clark has joined the race for the seat being vacated by term-limited State Representative Kevin Wilson.  According to the Neosho Daily, Mr. Clark will be running on the Republican ticket.  Clark will be the third local candidate to announce such intentions.  Local Realtor and retired teacher Lynn Otey annouced earlier this year followed by farmer Bill Reiboldt this summer.

Since the filing for this seat doesn't even start for another four months (Feb 23rd I believe), there will plenty of time for others to still get on the ballot and ultimately square of in the August 2010 primary.  As of today, I have not heard of anyone running on the opposing party ticket.

It should be an interesting race.
