Jason Kander, the democratic candidate running for Senate in Missouri posted an ad, which features him assembling a rifle blindfolded while verbally criticizing his running mate, Roy Blunt. According to washingtonpost.com, this ad is the best to come out of the election so far. Kander states, "I also believe in background checks, so that terrorists can't get their hands on one of these." Passing background check legislation has not been popular recently, but the American public does not seem to agree with Washington on this issue. An estimated 85% of gun owners support universal background checks for buyers. Kander has a chance to take Blunt's seat because of this. Despite its GOP lean at the federal level, Missouri is ranked #10 for most likely to flip parties in "The Fix's most recent Senate rankings.
