2024 battleground election

See also: Missouri gubernatorial election, 2024 (August 6 Republican primary)

Ballotpedia identified the August 6, 2024, Republican primary as a battleground race. The summary below is from our coverage of this election, found here. Mike Kehoe (R) won the Republican primary for Missouri's gubernatorial election on August 6, 2024. Click here for detailed results.

Nine candidates ran in the Republican primary election for governor of Missouri on August 6, 2024. Jay Ashcroft (R), Bill Eigel (R), and Mike Kehoe (R) led in polling and media attention. Inc. Gov. Mike Parson (R) was not able to file for re-election due to term limits.

Ashcroft, Eigel, and Kehoe participated in a February candidate forum. According to St. Louis Public Radio’s Jason Rosen, "The verbal blows onstage reflect a new reality for a party that’s been dominant in state elections for nearly eight years. Republicans now face noticeable factionalism in their legislative supermajority and on the campaign trail."[2] Rosen said that while Kehoe avoided directly criticizing the other candidates, Eigel criticized both Kehoe and Ashcroft, saying, "Don't be afraid of the message that we can't take our state back because I don't have enough lobbyist money or I don't have the right last name from my dad," referring to Ashcroft, who is the son of Frmr. Gov. John Ashcroft. Ashcroft responded by saying, "Are we going to pick words, or we're going to pick actions?"[2]

Ashcroft was the Missouri Secretary of State. Ashcroft said his engineering background helped him be results-driven. Ashcroft said, "It takes a different kind of thinking to lead the way out. I’m an engineer, and engineers fix problems. We focus on results." Ashcroft said he would reduce government spending, eliminate gas and income taxes, increase law enforcement funding, and keep obscene materials out of public libraries.[3][4][5]

Eigel was a state senator from Missouri’s 23rd District. Eigel said, "I happen to believe that one of the biggest problems that we have here in Missouri [is] all of those so-called Republicans - folks who campaign as Republicans and govern as Democrats. I’ve got news for these campaign conservatives who have betrayed us: your grift is coming to an end."[6] Eigel said he would require election authorities to manually count ballots instead of using machines, eliminate personal property and corporate taxes, and disallow programs he described as "woke" from being taught in public schools.[7]

Kehoe was the lieutenant governor of Missouri. Kehoe said, "Making our communities safer, controlling spending, running the state like a business, creating jobs, and securing the future for Missouri by fighting for our shared family values - [that] is why I am running for governor."[8] Kehoe said he supported policies that would create more jobs, expand workforce development, support seniors and veterans, and improve education.[9]

Over 20 unions and organizations endorsed Kehoe, including the Fire Fighter Association of Missouri, Missouri Agribusiness Association, and the Missouri Farm Bureau.[10] The Missouri Right to Life PAC endorsed Ashcroft, and the Make Liberty Win PAC endorsed Eigel.[11][12]

As of August 6, 2024, The Cook Political Report with Amy Walter, Inside Elections with Nathan L. Gonzales, and Larry J. Sabato's Crystal Ball rated the Missouri gubernatorial election as a safe or solid Republican seat.

Darren Grant (R), Jeremy Gundel (R), Darrell Leon McClanahan III (R), Robert Olson (R), Amber Thomsen (R), and Chris Wright (R) also ran in the Republican primary.

Polls

Polls are conducted with a variety of methodologies and have margins of error or credibility intervals.[13] The Pew Research Center wrote, "A margin of error of plus or minus 3 percentage points at the 95% confidence level means that if we fielded the same survey 100 times, we would expect the result to be within 3 percentage points of the true population value 95 of those times."[14] For tips on reading polls from FiveThirtyEight, click here.

Expand all | Collapse all

I am a Christian, veteran, small business owner, husband, father, and state senator.

I began my adult life in the Air Force, where I achieved the rank of Captain. I was the Aircraft Maintenance Officer in charge of half of America’s entire fleet of B-2 stealth bombers. During my service, I deployed to multiple foreign locations, including Ashgabat, Turkmenistan, in support of Operation Enduring Freedom. I was awarded the Air Force Commendation Medal for my service as the Officer-In-Charge for America's primary airlift refuel stop between Afghanistan and Europe in 2004.

Amanda, my wife, also served in the Air Force. After leaving the service in 2007, we moved to MO to raise our kids. We purchased St. Louis Skylights, a small residential and commercial remodeling company.

As a small business owner, I learned how to cut waste and turn a struggling business around. Despite the challenges of the economic recession in 2008 and 2009, we expanded to serve customers nationwide.

I didn’t want anything to do with politics. As a business owner, the government was always regulating my company, telling me how to run my business, and taxing me to no end.

When Obamacare was shoved down the throat of my small business, our premiums tripled and our coverage was worse.

That caused me to get involved and eventually run for state senate in 2016.

As a senator, I've been the same person I promised to be. I was a founding member of the Conservative Caucus and the MO Freedom Caucus.

  • I am the ONLY candidate who will eliminate personal property tax and income tax. You should not have to pay “rent” to the government every December 1st for the “crime” of just owning a car in the form of a personal property tax. 29 other states have already gotten rid of personal property tax, Missouri is going to be the 30th. My plan is to cut the necessary spending at the state level and backfill the local areas to keep them whole. The local areas won’t lose a dime. I have been advocating for eliminating the income tax for years. My copycat opponents recently decided to come around to my position just in time for campaign season. As a Senator, I actually passed the largest single year state income tax cut in Missouri history (HB 2540).
  • I am the ONLY candidate with a plan to DETAIN and DEPORT every single one of the estimated 77,000 illegal aliens already in MO. Not only do I unequivocally 100% stand with President Donald J. Trump and support building the wall, but I have a plan to take action in Missouri! My first day as governor, I will declare an invasion under Article IV of the Missouri Constitution. This will allow me to mobilize the Highway Patrol, National Guard, and every Sheriff in this state; and we're going to DETAIN and DEPORT the illegals already in MO. When democrats in Colorado and Maine tried to ban Trump from the ballot, I fought back and filed a bill to kick Joe Biden off the ballot in MO for the invasion he’s allowing to occur at our southern border.
  • I am the ONLY candidate who wants to ban ALL foreign countries from owning ANY Missouri land. Missouri ought to be owned by Missourians, or at least Americans. In the MO Senate, I filed a constitutional amendment to ban ALL foreign ownership of MO land and to TAKE BACK the land already in foreign hands. We are getting every single square inch of our land back! My opponents lie about their record. Before 2013, it was illegal for foreign countries to buy our land. Then, Mike Kehoe, aka Kung Pao Kehoe, voted 4 times to sell 270,000 acres of our land to China. That same year, Kung Pao Kehoe received $8,500 from the CHINESE company who bought our land. Jay Ashcroft supported SB 55, which would have allowed 135,000 acres of our land to be sold.

As a USAF veteran who was deployed overseas, I know first hand the struggles that our veterans and active military personnel face. I lost friends. I saw the struggle upon returning home. I disdain the ruling elite who send our men and women to die in their wars, all while doing nothing to ensure their sacrifice is honored.

I filed a bill to 1) eliminate the COVID-19 vaccine mandates for the National Guard, 2) eliminate the income tax on National Guard signing bonuses, and 3) ban all foreign ownership of land within 500 miles of our military bases.

As a small business owner, I believe the way to achieve economic growth is to cut taxes and red tape across the board. Government picking winners and losers is NOT the way to do it.

I look up to Ronald Reagan. He was able to so clearly communicate our conservative Republican ideals that he won the country and carried 44 states in his re-election.

I look up to Calvin Coolidge. He was able to eliminate the national debt during his presidency.

I look up to Donald J. Trump. He is being attacked from all sides, plagued by political prosecutions and baseless witch hunts, yet, he NEVER SURRENDERS or gives up. When Donald Trump is elected President for the 3rd time in a row, he’s going to drain the swamp in Washington D.C. and I’m going to drain the swamp in Missouri.

In recent years, the initiative petition (IP) process has been hijacked by far left dark money groups to legalize recreational marijuana, expand medicaid, and force other wack-job liberal agendas into our state. IP reform is needed to protect our gun rights, our pro-life laws, our pocketbooks, and our way of life.

This November, thanks to weak establishment republicans and our weak initiative petition laws, we could see abortion legalized up until the moment of birth. We could see a $15 an hour minimum wage enshrined in our constitution, something Bernie Sanders only dreamed of in 2016.

As governor, I will be a leader and we will defeat the abortion initiative in November.

Republicans across Missouri have demanded IP reform for years. With the very real possibility of the IP process being used to enshrine abortion in our constitution, we must fight like never before. Desperate times call for desperate measures. We must defend the sanctity of life and do what it takes to ensure abortion is never legalized in Missouri.

Currently, a simple majority of 50% is all that is needed to amend the Missouri Constitution. I support concurrent majority ratification which would require a simple majority of the vote as well as a majority of legislative districts, ensuring the voices of all Missourians are heard and not just the big cities like Kansas City and Saint Louis. We must ensure constitutional amendments are broadly supported across all areas of our state and ensure rural representation.

Scorecards

See also: State legislative scorecards and State legislative scorecards in Missouri

A scorecard evaluates a legislator’s voting record. Its purpose is to inform voters about the legislator’s political positions. Because scorecards have varying purposes and methodologies, each report should be considered on its own merits. For example, an advocacy group’s scorecard may assess a legislator’s voting record on one issue while a state newspaper’s scorecard may evaluate the voting record in its entirety.

Ballotpedia is in the process of developing an encyclopedic list of published scorecards. Some states have a limited number of available scorecards or scorecards produced only by select groups. It is Ballotpedia’s goal to incorporate all available scorecards regardless of ideology or number.
