Greene County Clerk Shane Schoeller is no stranger to crowded primaries — including to be the GOP nominee for secretary of state. The GOP countywide official defeated two well-funded and well-organized Republican opponents in 2012 to become the party’s candidate to succeed then-Secretary of State Robin Carnahan.

And he contends that experience helps him stand out in a secretary of state field that includes seven other GOP contenders. “I think what distinguishes me from everyone else is I've actually been administering elections for the past 10 years,” Schoeller said on an episode of the Politically Speaking podcast. “It’s no different than when you think about voting for sheriff, you want someone who has law enforcement experience before they become the sheriff of your county. I strongly believe we need someone who has election experience to become the next Secretary of State.”
