US Midterms 2026Background
Missouri voters rejected Proposition A on 3 November 2026 by 1,278,507 votes (61.83%) to 789,236 (38.17%), with 95% of precincts reporting, on Ballotpedia's unofficial count on 4 November. A No vote repeals HB 1, the congressional map Republicans passed in a 2025 special session and Governor Mike Kehoe signed on 28 September 2025. Missouri's 2022 map stays in place.
The vote followed a referendum petition. the Supreme Court of Missouri suspended HB 1 in Von Glahn v. Hoskins and sent it to voters. The US Supreme Court later stayed an 8th Circuit order and kept Missouri on its 2022 map for the 2026 election.
HB 1 split Kansas City across several districts and targeted the Democratic-held 5th. Its repeal keeps that district in its 2022 shape for future elections.
