. No state has ever voted down such a ballot initiative in recent years, underscoring the popularity of Medicaid expansion even in parts of the country hostile to Obamacare.
Republican Gov. Mike Parson, who’s up for reelection, opposed the ballot measure, saying the state couldn’t afford the coverage expansion. Missouri’s Medicaid program has already seen enrollment riseThe ballot initiative’s organizers focused on similar messages from other successful Medicaid expansion campaigns. They highlighted the federal support it would bring to cash-strapped rural hospitals, after 10 have closed since 2014 and others face financial peril.
