News
Brad Patty is in the news because Missouri’s 5th District is expected to be a competitive House race in 2026. Recent ballot and redistricting developments could shape the district’s electorate, including a possible referendum on the congressional map and August primary ballot measures that may favor Republicans. The reporting suggests the political terrain for the race is still shifting, but it does not give any new direct campaign action from Patty.
