WE

DESERVE A

CHOICE

Who is TJ Benoist?

From the humble pews of St. Joseph Catholic Church & School in Farmington to the halls of Farmington High School, every corner of this county has shaped me. I've played in these woods, traversed these roads, and envisioned my future here. And now, I stand before you, fueled by a profound belief in the potential of our county.


Enough with the status quo of one-party rule. Our community thrives on diversity of thought, on healthy debate, and on the power of intelligent disagreement. It's time for a change, and I'm here to offer you a choice—a choice that reflects the true essence of democracy.


Yes, I may be young, but don't mistake youth for inexperience. From my earliest days, I've identified problems, debated solutions, and implemented change. Just ask my teachers—they'll tell you about my relentless pursuit of progress.


I am a product of St. Francois County—a testament to the resilience, the grit, and the spirit that defines us. And it is with humility and gratitude that I offer myself as a champion for our community, dedicated to serving you with integrity, passion, and purpose.

Where I Stand

Voter Access & Voter Involvment

Voting is not just a privilege; it's a fundamental right. Yet, our voter turnout remains dismal. Under my leadership, we will revolutionize voter registration and turnout, working tirelessly with the County Clerk to implement innovative solutions that empower every eligible citizen to make their voice heard.


Moreover, I pledge to defend our right to vote tooth and nail. Any attempt to undermine this sacred right will be met with fierce opposition. Our democracy thrives when every voice is heard, and I will ensure that no obstacle stands in the way of our collective voice.

Roads and Infrastructure

Our roads and infrastructure are the arteries of our county, and they're in dire need of attention. Alongside my fellow Commissioners and experts in the field, we will prioritize infrastructure projects, ensuring that our roads are safe and our communities are connected.

I'm ready to listen...

But above all, I'm here to listen—to YOU. Your concerns, your dreams, your aspirations—they are the heartbeat of our county. My youth may mean I haven't seen it all, but it also means my ears are finely tuned to your needs. So, line up and share your issues, and I promise to be your unwavering advocate, fighting tirelessly for the solutions that matter most to you.

St. Francois County...

...together, we have the power to shape our destiny. Let's seize this opportunity, let's embrace change, and let's build a future that we can all be proud of.


Thank you for your support, your trust, and your belief in a brighter tomorrow.
