Republicans can keep insisting on catching the Dobbs car, and theyre gonna keep getting run the fuck over for their stupidity.

'Send it back to the States' was galaxy-brain stupid of them, a phyrric victory if ever there was one...instead of losing one fight, they decided to lose 50 different wars.

Our precinct is one of the bluest in the state. There were 150-200 people in front of us and the line kept growing as we waited. It took us an hour to vote and we got there before the polls opened. I am filled with hope today.

I left in the 90s and never looked back when I joined the Navy.

I hope you guys can finally put it together out there. Good luck!

My first presidential election ballot was actually cast in Missouri. It was the year after 3 Mile Island and there was a nuclear initiative on the ballot, and I voted against it. But it passed anyway.

Also there was a 1/8% conservation tax on the ballot which I supported. I think that passed.

... Currently the SoS is sueing the DOJ for sending poll watchers for 2 million people ... 2 DOJ poll watchers.

That's how corrupt it is this state and the DOJ is too busy looking for laptops to take it seriously.

Same with Ohio who has one EVS per county knowing dem counties have millions of people and Texas were purging millions of voters is still allowed.

Who otherwise might not show.
It's supposedly the #1 sign stolen this election, even more than Harris/Walz.

Lived in St Joseph from 1988-94. My daughter was still born at 22 weeks, just shy of viability then in 1989. There was absolutely no problem with receiving the appropriate medical care for my situation, care which is now being denied women all over the country in these backassward states, primarily by men that think women and their chosen advisors do not have the right to make their own choices about their own bodies.

With Amendment three to vote for and Josh Hawley to vote against, I am reluctantly confident that MO has a chance of some blue victories.
