Tencher to Show-Me State

Joining the recent migration of political staffers, West Warwick native Paul Tencher, former chief of staff for LG Elizabeth Roberts, sends word that he's headed West:

I have accepted an offer from Judy Baker, a wonderful woman running for Congress in Missouri's 9th Congressional District. Judy is one of the top open seats in the country and last week won a contentious three-way primary to become the nominee. She has been targeted by the DCCC as a top red-to-blue pick up seat for 2008. She has been endorsed by EMILY's List and will fight very hard especially to reform our broken health care system.

Now that the campaign commercial is over, I want to tell you how thankful I am for my home state and everyone here. I will miss the final weeks of the summer and fall in New England, but I will be back and can't wait to see you all again.
