Timeline for Mike Kehoe
Mentioned in: Missouri voters repeal 2025 House map
US Midterms 2026Background
Mike Kehoe signed HB 1, the congressional map Republicans passed in a 2025 special session, on 28 September 2025. Missouri voters repealed it on 3 November 2026 by rejecting Proposition A, 61.83% to 38.17% on Ballotpedia's unofficial table.
Kehoe was sworn in as Missouri's 58th governor on 13 January 2025. Governor Mike Parson appointed him lieutenant governor in 2018, and he held that post until 2025. Earlier he was majority leader of the Missouri Senate.
The repeal keeps Missouri's 2022 lines, so the map he signed to target the Democratic-held 5th District never takes effect.
