Here is a link to the election returns for Missouri’s special U.S. House election. The Constitution Party nominee, Doug Enyart, is at 3.6%. While that is not an especially strong showing, it is easily the best showing for U.S. House that the Constitution Party has ever made in Missouri. Until this election, the party had never hit as much as 2% for any of its U.S. House candidates in Missouri.
Alan Redburn ran for State Senate in 1998 as U.S. Taxpayers Party and garnered 12%. Other than that 15 year old foray, this is the first time a CPer has run for any office in this entire district. The race was really a start-up for the CP. Doug Enyart did best in his own county – 19.2% – which means he could do well campaigning as a State Representative.
