Wesley Bell beats Cori Bush in Missouri Democratic House primary rematch
Rep. Wesley Bell on Tuesday beat former congresswoman Cori Bush in a heated primary in Missouri's 1st Congressional District, CBS News projects.
Rep. Wesley Bell has won the Democratic primary in Missouri's 1st Congressional District, defeating former congresswoman Cori Bush. This was a rematch of a primary two years ago, which Bell won with significant support from AIPAC, according to the Jerusalem Post.
The Jerusalem Post notes that the outcome of this and another primary in Michigan could indicate whether criticism of Israel has become a broader electoral force within the Democratic Party. However, CBS News only reports on the Missouri primary.
Bell's victory over Bush marks a repeat of their 2022 primary contest.
