Republicans fixing to carve up Missouri

[usregimechange]

JEFFERSON CITY — Faced with the prospect of losing a U.S. House seat, St. Louis Democrats say one of their top priorities will be ensuring that the state's 1st Congressional District retains its black plurality when the Republican-dominated legislature redraws districts next session...

After enjoying record success in last month's midterm election, Missouri Republicans find themselves in a position to lead the redistricting process next year. That could be bad news for Missouri's three Democratic congressmen, one of whom could be out of a job if Missouri, as expected, loses a House seat...

Any redistricting bill passed by the legislature can be vetoed by Democratic Gov. Jay Nixon. But Republicans will have the required two-thirds majority in the Senate to override a gubernatorial veto and are just three votes short of the two-thirds majority in the House.

1. Russ C almost lost

Not safe.

The GOP will probably eliminate Russ and make the 1st district have even more African American and Democratic.
