Missouri’s Political Crossroads | San Francisco News
Description
Missouri’s primary day is heating up with a high-stakes rematch in St. Louis: Cori Bush vs. Wesley Bell, where foreign policy—especially Israel—could decide the outcome. Bush, once part of the progressive “Squad,” lost to Bell two years ago over Gaza criticism; now AIPAC is backing Bell again as democratic socialists rally behind Bush. Both leaders forged their paths in Ferguson after Michael Brown’s death, turning protest into power. Beyond this race, voters face two major ballot measures—one tightening citizen-initiated amendments and another proposing to scrap the state income tax in favor of expanded sales tax. Meanwhile, Republicans are seizing opportunities in redrawn districts and retiring seats. It’s a pivotal day shaping Missouri’s political future.
