Bob Burns signed up to run as a Democrat in the 93rd House District as filing for that seat stayed open a little longer after state
Burns was in the effort . He has served on the Affton School Board, worked as a staffer for Claire McCaskill and previously ran for the state House in the 2000s, losing narrowly to then-state Rep. Jim Lembke (R-Lemay).
Other candidates in that contest include Democrat Joe Montecillo—husband of state Rep. Genise Montecillo (D-Affton)—and Republican Tony Leech. The winner of the Democratic primary in the 93rd District, which includes a big chunk of Lemay, could be the favorite in the November election.
