While Missouri's GOP governor has not made a decision yet on whether he'll call a special session for congressional redistricting, he says Illinois Democrats have gerrymandered their map. Governor Mike Kehoe spoke to reporters, including 939 the Eagle, in Columbia last week. Governor Kehoe says the U.S. House should stay in GOP control. State Rep. David Tyson Smith (D-Columbia) says a special session on congressional redistricting would be unconstitutional. Rep. Tyson Smith joined hosts Randy Tobler and Stephanie Bell live on 939 the Eagle's "Wake Up Missouri". He tells listeners that redistricting in mid-decade is designed for President Donald Trump's Republican Party to keep control of the U.S. House. He calls it egregious. While Rep. Tyson Smith admits Democratic states have gerrymandered districts, he says they haven't done it mid-cycle:

Look for Boone County commissioners to move swiftly to update the senior real estate tax relief program, after voters in Columbia/Boone County approved Boone Proposition 1 at the polls. Tuesday's final vote was 12,233 in favor and 3,506 votes against it. The measure involves exempting senior citizens from increases in property taxes. Boone County commissioners say they intend to ensure no disruption for the thousands of seniors who already participate in the program. Former State Rep. Cheri Toalson Reisch (R-Hallsville) pushed the measure and urged voters to approve it, telling 939 the Eagle that this is a full freeze to include bond levies. She joined hosts Randy Tobler and Stephanie Bell live this morning on "Wake Up Missouri" and tells listeners that commissioners will address the issue on Tuesday morning at 9:30 am:

The 2025 Missouri state fair kicks off Thursday August 7 in west-central Missouri's Sedalia and runs until Sunday August 17. This year's theme is “Step on in.” Missouri Department of Agriculture (MDA) director Chris Chinn joined hosts Randy Tobler and Stephanie Bell live on 939 the Eagle's “Wake Up Missouri” to preview the fair. Director Chinn tells listeners that the biggest improvement you'll see at the state fair in Sedalia is the Governor Mike Parson Arena being constructed there. “So the warm-up arena is already up and ready and they are constructing the big arena right now. We're actually going to send our tram route through that area so that fairgoers can watch that construction in progress and be a part of that,” Director Chinn says. There are big names who will perform at the State Fair Grandstand as well, including Wynonna Judd, Flo Rida and John Anderson. There will be tons of fair food and the popular “Pork Place restaurant” and the Beef House. Numerous livestock shows are planned, along with draft horse shows and numerous carnival rides.
