Election Takes

As I write this several states need to be called in the general election. I feel pretty confident that Biden will win. I am thrilled to see Trump out of there but I am somewhat disappointed in the results. It is amazing to me that almost half the country would vote for this madman, crook, and incompetent. I am concerned about how we move ahead. I am also disappointed that the Democrats will not be able to flip the Senate, and that local congressional candidate Jill Schupp lost. Also the passage of Amendment 3 which overrides the Missouri Clean Initiative is a major step backward for our state and locks in Republican gerrymandering for the future. Written by Paul Dribin

Election Prediction

Here are my election predictions:

Biden for President-350 electoral votes

Parsons over Galloway

Schupp over Wagner

Amendment 3 is voted down.

Let’s hope I am right. We cannot take 4 more years of Trump

A Lot of Money Spent on Tight Schupp-Wagner Race

www.stltoday.com/news/local/state-and-regional/nearly-20-million-has-flowed-so-far-into-hotly-contested-2nd-congressional-district-battle/article_17e93c94-4a38-5fef-9599-b711158a8dab.html

Jill Schupp has a chance to defeat do nothing Ann Wagner. My biggest objections to Ms. Wagner are that she is controlled by the insurance industry, never has public meetings, tried to kill Obamacare, and tried to weaken efforts to clean up the securities industry. I can’t believe a Congresswomanj has never had public meetings. Written by Paul Dribin

Missouri 2nd Congressional District

This district represented by Republican Ann Wagner represents the western suburbs of St. Louis, formerly a heavily Republican area. Wagner is being challenged in the race by Jill Schupp, a Democratic former state representative and senator. Schupp has raised a lot of money and appears to be neck and neck with Wagner. The race really boils down to if suburban Republican women turn against Wagner in the same number they turned against Trump. Voter turnout is high. Stay tuned. Written by Paul Dribin

Trump underperforming in St. Louis suburbs

According to the Cook Political Report, President Trump is significantly underperforming in Missouri’s second congressional district compared to 2016. This is the district represented by Ann Wagner, Republican. Trump is running over 10 points behind his results in the 2016 election when he carried the district. This is great news for Wagner’s challenger, Jill Schupp. Written by Paul Dribin

Schupp-Wagner Race

Ann Wagner is my congressperson, representing western St. Louis and parts of St. Charles and Jefferson Counties. She has been a staunch conservative and has gleefully supported elimination of the Affordable Care Act. Furthermore in 8 years she has never held a public meeting. Jill Schupp is her opponent, a sane, competent, moderate liberal. She needs to win.
