Sarah Unsicker

Sarah Unsicker (born May 3, 1976) is an American politician who has served in the Missouri House of Representatives first elected from the 91st district in 2016, and after redistricting in 2022, from district 83. She was a candidate in the 2024 Missouri Attorney General election, however withdrew before the primary. She has since announced her candidacy in the 2024 Missouri gubernatorial election.

Career
Unsicker was removed from all her committees in 2023 after she repeatedly posted a photo on social media of herself with far-right activist Charles C. Johnson, who has denied the Holocaust. Johnson later accused two of Unsicker's opponents in the attorney general election, one Democrat and one Republican who are both American Jews, of conspiracy and dual loyalty with Israel. Incumbent Andrew Bailey was not included in the allegations. When presented inaccuracies in Johnson's theory, Unsicker released a statement claiming to hold credible evidence of foreign interference. She withdrew from the election shortly thereafter.

Fellow Democratic representative Keri Ingle called for Unsicker to be removed from the Democratic caucus for promoting Antisemitism and spreading rumors about deceased Missouri politicians Cora Faith Walker and Tom Schweich.

In January 2024, Unsicker announced from the US Capitol in Washington, DC, that she is running for the office of Missouri governor. She did not indicate if she would run as a Democrat. However, on February 27, 2024, the Missouri Democratic Party refused to enable her to run for governor as a Democrat, stating that her prior actions meant they did not want her to represent them in the race.
