“I’m just trying to make sense of why so much money would be spent in our congressional race when our district has so many needs,” an exasperated Bush told NBC News in an interview on a sweltering summer day. Our answer to her. Every district has needs, why do you think that yours is more important than the rest of the country? Do you have more Welfare Mungers?
She was referring to the more than $18 million spent in her race against Wesley Bell, making it the second most expensive House primary in the nation. Bell, who is St. Louis County’s prosecuting attorney, has had significantly more ad backup in the race thanks to a nearly $9 million infusion from a pro-Israel group seeking to oust Bush, an outspoken Israel critic.
‘Squad’ Democrat Cori Bush’s chances of surviving her Missouri primary, according to the polls
Missouri Representative Cori Bush is facing on Tuesday one of the most high-profile primary elections in the country, as the member of the progressive group known as “The Squad” takes on a challenger heavily financed by a pro-Israel lobbying group due to her vocal criticism of the country’s war against Hamas in Gaza. Several investigations by the Justice Department, Federal Election Commission and House Ethics Committee over alleged misuse of campaign funds for personal security are in voters’ focus as well.
Bush appears to be at serious risk of losing her seat against prosecutor Wesley Bell, with most polls showing her trailing her opponent. The FiveThirtyEight survey aggregator shows that the last study, conducted by the Mellman Group in late July, had Bell in the lead with 48% of the support compared to Bush’s 42%.
It is worth noting that the poll was among 400 likely voters, making the margin of error higher.
