Great updated question for Missouri

I saw this last evening:

What's the Matter With Missouri?

State Republicans have used divisive social issues legislation to strengthen the conservative coalition and push out progressives.

"...therein lay the problem for Missouri, a former bellwether state which is now so conservative that a guy who believes women who are raped can "shut that whole thing down" to prevent pregnancy is polling even with a centrist incumbent U.S. senator."

Great question.

The sad state of Missouri.

And the United States.
