Republicans hold two of the state's six statewide offices, a majority in the Missouri House of Representatives and a supermajority in the Missouri Senate. Republicans also hold one of the state's U.S. Senate seats and six of the state's nine U.S. House of Representatives seats.
The state of Missouri has been known to be a bellwether state, which means that it has voted for the winning presidential candidate in all but two elections. The vote of Missouri can be swayed either way and historically, no party has had a strong grasp on the state. The Radical Republicans did have some control from 1864 to 1870, but from that time, there hasn't been much to match that. The state's political affiliation has swayed from supporting Republican candidates such as Theodore Roosevelt, to Democrats like Franklin D. Roosevelt.
Charles Summers as an important Republican Senator from Missouri.[2] Leader of the antislavery movement in Missouri and also the leader of the Radical Republicans during the civil war. Although he changed political parties several times, he gained a lot of fame as a Republican. He specialized in foreign affairs and helped keep the British and French from helping the Confederacy during the Civil War. He also became the chief Senate spokesman on foreign affairs and did a lot of work to help abolish slavery in the United States.
Ulysses S. Grant served as the 18th President of the United States.[3] He was also a military commander during the Civil War. He led the Union Army to victory against the Confederates. After the war, he was nominated as president in 1868 and was reelected in 1872. During his presidency, he led Reconstruction by signing civil rights laws and fighting against the KKK. Grant also contributed a lot to the Republican party in the South and he helped rebuild it. However his reputation was damaged by scandals and corruption during his presidency.
The Missouri GOP believes that families are the bedrock of Missouri. The party tries to pursue policies that strengthen families and get rid of those that weaken family values.[4]
The Missouri Republicans support laws that will help fund public schools. They believe in giving families the option to take their child out of a failing school and transfer them to the school of their choice. They want to look into and fix the urban education problem that has already hurt so many families. The GOP believes in focusing on a formula that takes into account the needs of the children over the tax capacity of that district and also providing education savings accounts that are tax exempt.
The Missouri Republicans believe that parents should have an important role and should get involved in their child's education. Parents should have the final word regarding their child's education. They also expect parents to act as role models and provide a good and nurturing environment at home.

They believe that marriage should only happen between a man and a woman, and that is the only type of marriage they will support no matter what state it took place in. The party also wants to end the marriage penalty in the state's tax code.
Missouri Republicans want every citizen to have the ability to choose a health plan that best fits their needs and price range. They believe in giving senior citizens more health care choices and assistance if needed. They believe in replacing the current health program with MO HealthNet, with the hopes that it will make health care more affordable and more available to the population. The party believes in supporting Missourians to buy their own personal health insurance and it supports reform laws that stopped the abuse of the judicial system through the filing of lawsuits.
Missouri's Republicans accept that Missouri's many different faith communities are essential to society. They support and embrace faith communities, because of the charity, virtue and shared prosperity that can be provided from religion.

The GOP supports increased security at borders to stop illegal immigrants from entering the country and revising the system of monitoring the status of visas.
Landowners have the right to preside over their land without any interference from the government. The party believes that the source of the U.S.'s riches is food production. It believes in the wise use of resources and the conservation of the land that food is planted on. It believes that agriculture is important since it is Missouri's largest industry.
The GOP opposes job-killing policies. It pledges to oppose Democrat-backed policies that could stifle economic recovery. Republicans vow to hold the line on taxes and believe that the private sector creates new jobs more efficiently than any government program could.
Republicans believe that Americans are opposed to federal health care legislation. They plan on controlling the cost of insurance by introducing more competition. The Missouri GOP supports allowing groups of people to pool and purchase health care at lower prices.
The Missouri GOP stands for finding a pro-consumer, pro-job, pro-America energy policy that will emphasize market-based solutions and the use of inexpensive, secure, and reliable domestic fuel resources to grow the economy. It wants to break America's dependency on other countries for an energy source.
Republicans believe in keeping the U.S. safe. They believe that could be achieved if these following steps are taken. They want to secure the peace in Iraq and Afghanistan. They want to finish the job the right way without creating a timeline for withdrawal. They also want to keep terrorists off American soil. The GOP also wants to install defense mechanisms to stop missiles from reaching the U.S. and it wants to secure America's borders.
Republicans believe in protecting the rights that civilians are given in the constitution. This can be achieved by loosening up gun laws and getting rid of a lot of government involvement in people's daily lives.

A Missouri state representative made his first public statement about being gay to speak in opposition to a bill that would ban most discussions of homosexuality in public schools. KMBC 9's Micheal Mahoney reports.
I left the Dallas County Missouri Caucus today feeling completely left out of the process. The delegates were pre-selected via "slate." I respect the fact that some of these people have been more active in the political process but I do feel like all who made the effort to come to the Caucus today should have had their voices heard. I would have liked to know more about the delegates as I was there to vote for delegates to represent me as a voter. The delegates may be fine and dandy people and maybe I would completely approve of them but I didn't get the chance to make that decision for myself... it was made for me...
