Missouri Republicans tried to make voter-initiated constitutional amendments impossible by requiring passage in every congressional district instead of just statewide. Voters rejected the amendment in not just every congressional district but every county too. Trump won all but four counties there

New York Times election results graphic for Missouri's Amendment 4. "No" is marked with a check as the winner, with 1,123,264 votes, or 80.3%. "Yes" has 275,157 votes, or 19.7%. Total reported: 1,398,421.

Below, a county map of Missouri shades results from teal for Yes to orange for No, with the darkest shades indicating margins of 70% or more. Kansas City, Columbia, St. Louis, and Springfield are labeled. Every county is shaded orange for No, and no county is teal. The great majority are at the darkest orange level of 70% or more, including all counties around Kansas City, Columbia, St. Louis, and Springfield. A cluster of lighter-orange counties in the 60-percent range appears in the northeast, with a few scattered lighter counties in the south-central and southeastern parts of the state.
