COLUMBIA, Mo. (AP) – Four years after Republicans turned in a dominant
performance in Missouri, the state’s GOP governor and a veteran Republican
congresswoman are facing strong challenges from Democrats. In the governor’s
race, voters on Tuesday will weigh in on whether they approve of Republican Gov.
Mike Parson’s handling of the coronavirus pandemic or whether it’s time for new
leadership. He is being challenged by Democratic Auditor Nicole Galloway.
Meanwhile, political experts believe the race between four-term 2nd District
Republican Rep. Ann Wagner and her Democratic challenger, Jill Schupp, is a
toss-up. Their St. Louis-area district is among many suburban districts across
the country that Democrats have targeted to flip.
