In 2024, voters in Missouri approved a different Amendment 3, which ended the state’s near-total abortion ban. Two years later, voters reiterated their support by rejecting Amendment 3 and keeping abortion access legal.
Unfortunately Cori Busch crowded out any other challengers to Bell in MO-1 due to her formerly holding that seat and being high profile but she is deeply unpopular and lost decisively in the primary. Maybe in 2 years I will register to run against bell and soundly lose by refusing to take money from lobbyist/special interest groups but it would be fun just to be able to vote for myself.
And we finally fucking got rid of Ann Wagner

Basically all the dems take money from AIPAC in MO so it never feels like a true victory
Edit: not to discredit the victory entirely, just to highlight my personal frustrations
