Missouri State Auditor Scott Fitzpatrick easily won renomination Tuesday as the Republican candidate for a second term, taking more than 80% of the vote against Jerry Wistrand of Oak Grove.
The primary was a mostly unseen campaign, with Fitzpatrick spending little and Wistrand having little to spend. Fitzpatrick’s campaign spent just $115,000 from the start of 2025 until a few weeks before the election, while Wistrand spent less than $5,000.
At 9:30 p.m., with 1,128 of 3,235 precincts reporting, Fitzpatrick had 86% of the Republican primary vote.
Fitzpatrick will face Democratic candidate Quentin Wilson of Kirkwood, a former state director of revenue. Wilson defeated Gregory Upchurch of St. Charles, taking about 70% of the primary vote.
Libertarian Dustin Coffell of Hazelwood was unopposed for his party’s nomination.
