Summary
Three seasoned Democratic contenders are locked in a high-stakes showdown for St. Louis County’s First District seat—Rita Heard Days, Ella Jones, and Maria Chappelle-Nadal—each bringing unique experience and bold visions to a sprawling, diverse district. Heard Days leans on decades of local leadership and housing wins, Chappelle-Nadal targets environmental crises and affordability with a state-level perspective, while Jones brings Ferguson’s community-focused energy and anti-violence advocacy. With no other parties in the race, this August primary is effectively the general election—voters will decide who shapes the county’s next chapter.
