Lacy Clay

U.S. Reps. Lacy Clay, D-University City, and John Shimkus, R-Collinsville, are departing Congress in early January.

Democrat Cori Bush has become the first Black woman from Missouri ever elected to Congress. She overwhelmingly won her 1st Congressional District race on Tuesday.

Missouri 1st Congressional District Democratic nominee Cori Bush has been a protest leader, a single mom, a pastor and a nurse. Now she’s likely headed to Washington, D.C. On Friday’s St. Louis on the Air, Bush joined host Sarah Fenske to talk about her goals for office and what she sees as the biggest challenges ahead.

Missouri’s 1st Congressional District will have a new Democratic candidate for the first time in more than 20 years, after Cori Bush defeated longtime Rep. Lacy Clay in Tuesday’s Democratic primary. Bush ran on a progressive agenda saying Clay, of University City, had been in office too long and hadn’t done enough for the residents of the district. She defeated Clay by about 4,600 votes.

The Clay family’s staying power in St. Louis politics is unmatched.For more than 50 years, Lacy Clay and his father, Bill, have represented Missouri’s 1st Congressional District — creating one of the strongest political organizations in the state’s modern history and one that’s withstood a number of tough challenges.
