Well we still have our blue jungles along with a couple of counties in the middle of the state which is a mystery. Watching the returns come in for us was interesting this cycle.

The left attacks on a multitude of issues to flip a state. We had an amendment pass in 2018 called 'Clean Missouri' that was presented as the 'solution' to dirty money in politics but buried deep in the bill was 'redistricting'. The left got it on the ballot under the guise of money when it was actually redistricting/redrawing the lines that was the goal. It completely changed the process, taking the decision of drawing lines from a bi-partisan commission to a newly created position of 'demographer' (bi partisan of course!) who would be appointed by the auditor who happens to be a left winged dem. Anyway, to solve that situation, Amendment 3 was placed on the ballot which would restore the original process of redistricting and I'm relieved to say that it passed and by a pretty good margin.

But they never give up trying to 'trick' Missourians with their stupid petitions to change this or change that and it always sounds good but it is nearly always an attempt to make Missouri lurch left. Don't get me wrong, we have our swamp here but that's another topic for another day. Sorry so long.
