前众议员科里·布什与温和派检察官韦斯利·贝尔在密苏里州进行初选对决，这是贝尔两年前击败布什后的又一次交锋。1 8月4日的初选提前投票已于周二启动。1
这场竞争成为民主党内部分裂的关键测试，围绕以色列问题、建制派权力和民主社会主义者影响力展开深层争议。1 美国以色列公共事务委员会（AIPAC）通过民主团结项目花费超过120万美元反对布什。1 新民主党多数派又额外投入100万美元反对布什。1 贝尔出席了与前众议院议长南希·佩洛西的联合活动，代表民主党建制派阵营提供支持。1
布什在2022年初选中以不足6个百分点的差距败给贝尔。1 贝尔在采访中称布什"不是严肃的候选人"，表示"她被解雇了"。1 布什则对AIPAC的投入进行反击，声称这笔支出"激进化了"她，并宣称自己在此次复选中拥有"道德权威"。1
Former U.S. Representative Cori Bush is competing against moderate prosecutor Wesley Bell in a Missouri primary election, two years after Bell defeated her by fewer than 6 percentage points in 2022.1 The race represents a significant test of internal Democratic divisions over Israel policy, party establishment power, and the influence of democratic socialists.1
Early voting for the August 4 primary began this week.1 The contest has attracted substantial outside spending, with AIPAC's Democratic Unity Project having spent more than $1.2 million opposing Bush.1 The New Democratic Majority has additionally invested $1 million against her candidacy.1 Bell appeared alongside former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, signaling establishment Democratic backing.1
The two candidates have exchanged criticism on the campaign trail. Bell characterized Bush as "not a serious candidate" and said "she was fired,"1 while Bush claimed that AIPAC's spending has "radicalized" her and asserted she now possesses the "moral authority" in the rematch.1
