    CHAPTER 2 EXECUTIVE BRANCH Walter Stollmeyer proudly stands next to his brand new Ford Touring Car, purchased in Herman, Missouri for $585.00 in 1919. (photo courtesy of Norma Maier) 32 OFFICIAL MANUAL Jeremiah W. (Jay) Nixon Governor Elected November 4, 2008 Term expires January 2013 JAY NIXON (Democrat) is serving his fi rst term as governor of Missouri. Garnering the highest margin of victory for a non- incumbent governor in 44 years, Nixon was overwhelmingly elected by Missourians as their 55th governor to create jobs and move the state forward. Governor Nixon has put forward an agenda to make govern- ment more effi cient, effective and responsive to the needs of Missouri families. He is committed to fi ghting every day to create jobs in Missouri, holding the line on taxes and placing a college education within reach for more Missouri students. As he did in the state Senate and during four terms as attor- ney general, Governor Nixon is reaching across the aisle to put Missouri families fi rst. He successfully worked with the legislature to pass several jobs initiatives to put Missourians back to work, including a bill to bring next-generation automotive production to Missouri. Nixon’s call to reform Missouri’s drunk-driving laws resulted in changes to keep repeat offenders off the road. Governor Nixon has led the fi ght for families with children with special needs, including the successful push to require insurance companies to cover proven treatments for autism disorders, as well as the creation of Partnership for Hope, which is helping provide community-based services to those with developmental disabilities.

First of all, please give a huge round of applause once again to one of the finest Governors in this country, Jay Nixon—give it up for him; your outstanding attorney general, Chris Koster; your fabulous State treasurer, Clint Zweifel; my great friend and supporter, State Auditor Susan Montee; one of my favorite folks in Missouri, Jean Carnahan; and all the McCaskills out there.

McCaskill. Of course she did. Of course she did. The President. All right. It is great to be back in the "Show Me" State. It's nice to get out of Washington for a little bit.
