Bell Re-elected in Missouri's 1st District as St. Louis Voters Reject Redistricting Referendum
In St. Louis, Missouri's November 3 election, Democratic Rep. Wesley Bell won re-election in the 1st Congressional District by a wide margin, while city voters rejected the Republican-backed congressional redistricting plan. Associated Press returns for the city showed Bell with 70,609 votes, Republican Paul Berry with 8,691 and Libertarian Tom Schmitz with 5,124; the AP called the race for Bell with 181 of 183 precincts reporting. On the same ballot, Proposition A, a referendum on the 2025 congressional map, was rejected by city voters with 74,886 against and 12,175 in favor; statewide, with 93 percent counted, the measure had only about 38 percent support and failed. In the St. Louis area's other closely watched race, Democratic challenger Fred Wellman defeated seven-term Republican Rep. Ann Wagner to win the 2nd District. Missouri voters also rejected Amendment 3, preserving the abortion rights measure passed in 2024, and approved Amendment 6, requiring an 80 percent legislative supermajority to amend voter-passed initiative laws. All results are unofficial until certified.
