Wesley Bell Locks In Missouri Seat | St. Louis News

Description

Wesley Bell has locked in his path to Congress, cruising past Cori Bush in Missouri’s First District after the AP called it early — and with a landslide of votes already counted. While Bush criticized Bell for not pushing hard enough for tornado relief funds, Bell focused on gun violence and economic growth. The campaign turned fiery over money too: Bell questioned Bush’s fund usage, hinting at political maneuvering, while Bush hit back with revelations about Bell’s pro-Israel donors. This isn’t their first rodeo — Bell actually defeated Bush in the 2022 primary and went on to win easily. Bush, who broke a decades-long political dynasty in 2020, now faces an uphill battle in a district that reliably leans Democratic — making Bell’s victory almost inevitable.
