If anyone could figure out whether Claire McCaskill still won in 2012 without St. Louis I'd be much obliged
She still wins pretty easily...
McCaskill: 1,371,125 (53.1%)
Akin: 1,050,774 (40.7%)
But only by 12. She won by 16, 55-39. St. Louis only makes up 5% of the population so its not nearly as influential as many other counties. In fact, if you remove St. Louis County (the suburban county) and Jackson County (Kansas City) McCaskill still wins. Todd Akin was incredibly pathetic, and deserved that kind of loss.
Did he lose his own district?
