Result

Democratic incumbent Rep. Nick Kimble (D-MO) won reelection to Missouri's State House District 82 in the Nov. 3 general election without opposition. He was the only candidate on the ballot, securing another term representing the district. Kimble has represented District 82 since winning his first election in November 2024, according to the Missouri House of Representatives. ​

Candidates and platforms

Kimble's positions come from his campaign's issues page, Nick Kimble On the Issues. The page says he:

  • Wants every Missouri child to have access to free, quality public education, with stronger public schools and full funding of the state's commitment to children.
  • Supports universal early childhood education.
  • Supports investment in higher education and workforce training.
  • Supports tough sentences for violent criminals while seeking to reduce the prison population, expand diversion programs for nonviolent offenders, and help formerly incarcerated people reintegrate into society.
  • Supports bodily autonomy and reproductive rights, criticizing Republican abortion restrictions that have limited access, including in cases of rape, incest or medical need.
  • Wants Missouri's right-to-work restrictions to remain repealed, unions to thrive, and housing and basic necessities to remain affordable, particularly in metropolitan areas.

The record names no opponent on the November ballot, so it does not report other candidates' positions. Kimble also ran unopposed in the Aug. 4 Democratic primary, receiving 8,893 votes, according to the Missouri secretary of state's official primary results.

District and chamber

District 82 is located in St. Louis and is represented by Kimble, a Democrat. The Missouri House of Representatives identifies him as the district's incumbent and confirms that he was first elected in November 2024. His reelection keeps the seat under Democratic control.

Across called state House races in the supplied nationwide election record, 1,978 Democrats and 1,712 Republicans are winners. Six winners are listed as independents, and one each under party codes N and X. These counts cover only races with a called winner and have not been independently verified against a consolidated nationwide election dataset.

Democrats account for approximately 53.5% of the 3,698 winners in that tally, while Republicans account for approximately 46.3%. Democratic winners outnumber Republican winners by 266. These figures represent the supplied record's nationwide aggregation, not the partisan composition of Missouri's 163-member House.
