Manage episode 434607035 series 3578807
Don and STL political veterans Mike Jones and Jason Rosenbaum of St. Louis Public Radio break down the epic and contentious battle for St. Louis' congressional seat between U.S. Rep Cori Bush and STL County Prosecuting Attorney Wesley Bell. Bell defeted Bush, ushering in a new era of representation for the seat that was one of the founding districts of the Congressional Black Caucus. Bush rose to prominence as a local activist and member of D.C.'s famed "Squad", while Bell's campaign was supported by unprecedented amounts of pro-Israel money poured into his campaign from across the country.
