KANSAS CITY, MO – KCUR sent reporters out to most of the official area watch parties on Super Tuesday, and we thought we'd introduce you to some of the local people who have been motivated to support some of the major candidates. And almost all of these people are new to politics.

Hear from Adam Hugo, supporting Ron Paul; Matthew Copple, who's behind John McCain, Sharey Chaney and Maron Rozler for Hillary Clinton; Sarah Starnes and Kelvin Walls for Barack Obama; and Joshua and Jennifer Berry, who are backing Mike Huckabee.
