Primary endorsements

July 24, 2004 |

Claire McCaskill just scored the endorsement of the state’s biggest newspaper, the St. Louis Post-Dispatch, adding to earlier nods from the Springfield News-Leader and Columbia Daily Tribune. Update, today The Star endorsed McCaskill, completing her sweep of the states largest newspapers. However, the paper reports that at least one poll has Claire trailing here in her traditional stronghold of Jackson County.

Meanwhile, the Star has announced endorsements in the race for Missouri’s 5th Congressional District seat: Emanuel Cleaver for the Democrats and Jeanne Patterson for the Republicans.
