New polling shows Missouri Republican Senate candidate Josh Hawley with a slight lead over Democratic incumbent Claire McCaskill in what promises to be one of the country’s tightest and most consequential races.
The new head-to-head survey, which was conducted last week by GOP pollster Remington Research, shows Hawley two points up on McCaskill, 48-46.

But, but, what about the Blue Wave???
Univ. of MO. Both for BA and JD.
In Montana, Tester is offering free $hit to the “gimme dat Parasites” to vote for him. Thats the only way a democrat/socialist can win....free $hit for the lazy parasites.
Pres. Trump endorsed Josh Hawley back in November during a trip to KC. Hawley does not seem very aggressive though. And Mother McCaskill has mega-bucks.
President Trump was in the St. Louis campaigning for Hawley today.
Then I see Trump doing a few Missouri rallies in September and October to push Hawley over the top.
I meant to type in the St. Louis area.
Well, Trump is already on it. :-)
Has a couple coming but sure he will return to MO prior to election. We get a precursor of November election next month when Missouri votes in Primary which includes Right to Work law. August 7. Unions fighting like hell to stop this. Hollywood active as well. John Goodman doing ads on TV.
This seat should have been won in 2012 if we didn’t have that idiot Todd “legitimate rape” Akin.
Gots to wonder what is wrong with the stoopids in Missouri that they keep electing this schrew?
