7. It is, but, unfortunately, ...

there are only about three cities (or four counties) that seem to have a reasonable chance at being consistently blue.

You're right about St. Louis being deep blue, though.

The non-GOP spots in MO are:

KCMO in Jackson County (2020, 60% Biden, 38% Trump),
Columbia in Boone County (2020, 54.9% Biden, 42.4% Trump),
St. Louis County (2020, 61.2% Biden, 37.2% Trump), and
St. Louis City (2020, 82.2% Biden, 16% Trump).

There does not seem to be much hope for anywhere outside of the aforementioned places.

Canvassing for Obama/Biden 2008 in the county which I was in only moved the needle from about 66% GOP to 63% GOP, and that was even after Bush's endless sequence of follies.


Wow, in the late 1970s, I headed through KC on Hwy-71 about four times yearly and got to see the lighting of the Plaza one Thanksgiving. There used to be a seafood buffet restaurant in the Union Station: it was called The Lobster Pot, I think. The king crab legs were really good - at least, it was a memorable experience.
