MO-GOV: Missouri's utilities give more than $400,000 to Kehoe campaign

Missouri’s utility companies appear to be mostly lining up behind one gubernatorial candidate in this year’s race. Campaign contribution records show this election cycle they’re throwing their support behind Mike Kehoe.

A report published by the Energy and Policy Institute, a utility watchdog organization, shows three of Missouri’s largest investor-owned utilities contributed to Lt. Gov. Kehoe’s campaign or to political action committees that support him.

Since 2019, Ameren, Spire and Evergy have donated $408,500 to American Dream PAC, a political action committee that supports Kehoe, according to the Energy and Policy Institute. Since 2010, the three companies contributed $86,700 to the Citizens to Elect Mike Kehoe campaign committee.

The Missouri Independent reports Kehoe’s campaign raised almost $13 million in the past two years.
