2016 United States Senate election in Missouri


The 2016 United States Senate election in Missouri was held November 8, 2016, to elect a member of the United States Senate to represent the State of Missouri, concurrently with the 2016 U.S. presidential election, as well as other elections to the United States Senate in other states and elections to the United States House of Representatives and various state and local elections. The primaries were held August 2.
Incumbent Republican Senator Roy Blunt won re-election to a second term in office, narrowly defeating Missouri Secretary of State Jason Kander.

Republican primary

Despite being considered an "establishment" Republican, Blunt did not face serious Tea Party opposition because of Blunt's efforts to cultivate relationships with activists in Missouri, his effectiveness at "thread the needle" by keeping conservative and establishment Republicans fairly satisfied, and the open gubernatorial election, which attracted the most attention from Republicans.
