Mike Kehoe

Missouri's 2028 gubernatorial election will test whether Kehoe's conservative agenda—particularly income tax elimination, police state control, and education privatization—proves durable. The state remains solidly Republican, but recent polling shows divided public opinion on key Kehoe priorities (47% oppose St. Louis police takeover; 52% support income tax elimination but 25% oppose). His success will likely influence Republican governance strategies nationally on tax policy and public safety.
