   There hasn't been a Republican Mayor in St Louis since 1944.   
   There hasn't been a Republican Mayor in Memphis since 1991.   
      
   St Louis had a population over 850,000 in 1950.  In 2025, the population   
   is 270,000.  Take a guess why.   
      
   Memphis maintained 600,000+, but only by annexation, which they've run out   
   of places to steal and prop up their tax base.   
      
   Democrats kill business and opportunity.
