| Run Time: | 00:10 |
| Description: "As for the budget, this is something I'm very concerned about, I actually agree with Mr. Schweich that we can't plug the holes in the budget with stimulus money and think that things are going to get better." | |

| Description: "I'm the only one at this table that got up in the morning and said I'd like to be State Auditor. Uhm, in fact, Mr. Schweich toyed around with playing a different race until they took him in a back room and put him into this one, so..." | |
Incumbent Susan Montee laughed as her opponent said he would serve a full four year term.
Tom Schweich responded by saying his life's work has been to uncover fraud, waste and corruption and would make an ideal candidate for auditor.
