Episode Details

Missouri voters head to the polls today for a pivotal day of primaries, featuring a high-stakes rematch in the 1st Congressional District between freshman Democrat Wesley Bell and former Congresswoman Cori Bush — a race drawing national attention and outside influence. This election also marks the first test of a new Republican-drawn congressional map designed to solidify GOP control of the House. Beyond St. Louis, voters decide seven other U.S. House seats and four statewide ballot measures, including Amendment Four, which would require district-by-district majorities to amend the state constitution — making future ballot initiatives harder — and Amendment Five, aiming to eliminate the state income tax in favor of higher sales taxes. Results begin rolling in at 7 PM CT, with the AP calling winners for House races, auditor, and ballot measures without projections — even if recounts are possible. It’s a defining moment for Missouri politics, shaping the state’s future and revealing key trends ahead of the general election.
