In late July 2026, coverage focused on local Republican primaries in Missouri. The first report detailed New Madrid County’s August 4 primary, outlining contests for county offices and four state constitutional amendments, and noting unopposed Republican candidates for many positions. The second report, published a few days later, broadened the scope to include Scott County’s GOP primary, naming incumbent and challenger candidates for presiding commissioner and circuit court clerk, as well as county‑wide tax questions. It also mentioned the simultaneous Kansas primary, highlighting the extensive slate of statewide races and a proposed amendment on Supreme Court appointments. Together, the snapshots trace a rollout of primary‑election information across multiple Missouri counties, expanding from a single‑county focus to a regional overview while also noting related ballot measures in both states.
