    I definitely don’t expect the Bible thumping deep south to flip, hell im not even sure i expect this ballot measure to pass. but the down ballot races will definitely be where it helps

        I do, and while it’s not as deep as some I still consider it to caucus with a lot of the red hell holes on average based on its legislature and voting history.

          First, missouri is very clearly and well known as “midwest”.

          Second, it leans republican, but it’s fairly purple. Dem presidential nominee pretty much always gets at least 40% of the vote, and over the past 50 years it’s 6 and 6 on dem vs republican governors.

              I said “at least”, Nimrod. They have voted a win for democrats before, and a few elections back the republican only won by 0.1%.
