| Description | ST. LOUIS (June 18, 8:00 p.m. ADT) - The son of the late Missouri Gov. Mel Carnahan and former U.S. Sen. Jean Carnahan launched a bid Wednesday to fill the congressional seat being vacated by presidential hopeful Dick Gephardt.
State Rep. Russ Carnahan, speaking before supporters in a St. Louis park, called the campaign "an opportunity whose time has come."
His mother sat in the crowd, smiling. "I think he can make a great contribution," she said. "He hasn't asked me for advice yet."
Gephardt, the former House minority leader, is not seeking re-election in 2004 as he bids for the White House. |
