Steele Shippy named Parson's campaign manager

JEFFERSON CITY, Mo. — Gov. Mike Parson has tapped Steele Shippy with leading his re-election campaign, he announced Thursday.

Parson hasn’t officially announced his re-election campaign but named Shippy, his communications director, as his campaign manager. He’s expected to make a formal announcement soon.

“As Teresa and I consider seeking re-election, we have been encouraged by the overwhelming support of individuals from all across Missouri,” Parson said in a statement. “As we look to the future, it is imperative that we have someone leading the effort who not only shares our dedication to the people of Missouri but also believes in the vision we have for our great state.”

“Steele has been with us from day one in the Governor’s office and understands the allegiance Teresa and I have to our great state and its citizens,” he continued. “He also shares our strong belief in our role as public servants, working for the people of Missouri.”
