Missouri 1st — 2024 Democratic Primary

AIPAC's super-PAC United Democracy Project spent ~$8.5M to oust incumbent Rep. Cori Bush. Challenger Wesley Bell won 51-46. The 5-point margin — despite $8M+ in outside spending — became the template CR uses to show that lobby money buys volume, not landslides.

What this page does and doesn't say
  • It does say: these figures come from FEC filings, candidate FEC summaries, and reputable reporting by named publications listed above. Every link is one click away.
  • It doesn't say: who will win. We surface money flows; we don't model elections. Polling, redistricting, organizing, candidate quality, and turnout all factor in ways the IE data cannot capture.
  • Updates: spending figures refresh as new FEC filings post. Refresh this page to pull the latest snapshot.
  • Free, always. Active race data stays free even after CR's Pro surfaces (Pro exports, alerts, deeper correlations) go live.
