From KansasCity.com:
Significantly more of Missouri’s political candidates are calling themselves Republicans than Democrats this year.
What isn’t clear is whether the high number of Republican candidates is a result of term limits or a general frustration with the path of government.
When Missouri’s candidacy filing period ended last week, Republicans comprised 303 of the 582 people running for U.S. Senate or House, the state Legislature, state auditor or circuit judgeships. Democrats had 224 candidates, and the rest were aligned with either the Libertarian or Constitution parties.
