Missouri governor

Election: Nov 3, 2028Updated: Apr 10, 2026
safe rMissouri is a Republican-dominated state; Democrats have not won a statewide race since 2018. Kehoe won 2024 gubernatorial race with 59.1% of vote, largest share since 1988.

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.

Candidates TBD
