Missouri redistricting reshapes races and House leadership
In Missouri, Rep. Noel Cox retires as redistricting reshuffles seats. Mary Gant seeks the first woman senator post with Royster backing, facing Patrick J. Keating. In the 1st District Donald J. Grabke is poised for the Democratic nomination after ousting Brick Storts for living outside the district. Lawrence J. Lee and Eugene Mazzuca clash in St. Louis area while Maurice Schechter faces Robert H. Branom in the 13th District. Redistricting stirs contests as many incumbents aim higher offices. 37 House members seek new terms or are drawn into tougher districts. Major leadership seats open as Godfrey and Cantrell leave the Speakership and appropriations chair, with several committee chairs also up for grabs.
