Webber in the Lead
With 50 percent of districts accounted for Stephen Webber, Democrat Incumbent, leads the Missouri State Senate race with 68 percent of votes.
Stephen Webber watch party attendees commented on the most recent update on Prop B, which is currently at a 50/50 percent split from those in favor and against the proposition.
"I am a passionate supporter of Prop B, and I am excited because the numbers just significantly changed on that, it's been very far behind all evening and now it's suddenly much closer, I'm assuming because, and I'm just guessing, the Kansas City and St. Louis numbers have come in and I am very concerned if it doesn't pass because it seemed that its opponents were spreading a great deal of disinformation that simply wasn't factual and caused people to be very confused about what it was about, which is simply protecting animals, " said Cathy Rosenholtz, MU grad student in political communication.
Other attendees commented on the results as the night continued.
"I'm surprised it was so lopsided, I expected a lot of races to be closer and there were a couple of surprise upsets. I'm glad the Parks tax passed, that's extremely important , and the smoking ban, those were interesting results," accountant Frederick Schmidt said.
