We targeted the race of John Bowman, Sr.(H-70) who was running to oust anti-choice incumbent Matt Muckler and he won! We also targeted the race of Page Bellamy (S-21)who was running against anti-choice Jim Seigfreid and he also won his race. Finally, we targeted the race of Jeanette Mott Oxford (H-59) to replace the seat vacated by Russ Carnahan and she won against anti-choice opponents. We are thrilled with these victories.
And now it's on to the general election! If you'd like to help us with all that we need to do to get more pro-choice legislators elected, contact Angie at either 314.531.8616 or by email at angie.postal@prochoicemissouri.org.
