Missouri's 25th Senate district

Missouri's 25th Senatorial District is one of 34 districts in the Missouri Senate. The district is currently represented by Republican Jason Bean.

Geography
The district is based in Southeast Missouri and includes all of the counties of Butler, Carter, Dunklin, Mississippi, New Madrid, Pemiscot, Shannon, and Stoddard. Major cities in the district include Poplar Bluff, Kennett, Dexter, Caruthersville, Malden, and Portageville. The district is home to Three Rivers College.

The district, although anchored in the GOP stronghold of Butler County, is fairly independent. The district takes in most of the Bootheel, one of the most impoverished and African American regions of the state - characteristics that favor Democrats. Although Democrats control most of the local/county offices in the district, both political parties are about as evenly competitive in the district.
