Several area legislative races are re-matches of recent special elections

By Tom Weber, KWMU

St. Louis – A handful of legislative races in Missouri next week will feature re-matches of special elections that were held just a few months ago.

Republican Scott Rupp beat Wayne Henke for a seat in the Missouri Senate just seven months ago. But the two are facing off again for a full term.

The district includes Lincoln and St. Charles Counties.

Another Republican, Dwight Scharnhorst, won a seat in the House nine months ago for a district that includes southwest St. Louis County, including Eureka.

His opponent then is his opponent now: Democrat Gen Frank.

Not too far south is the 105th District, where Democrat Michael Fram won a seat in February, as well.

He'll again face Republican Ed Groom.
