Of note also is that three of these alderpersons represent wards Green lost in 2019. Green also has the backing of three members of the St. Louis Board of Education, including its president and fellow DSA endorsee Matt Davis) and the support of at least two state representatives — Rasheen Aldridge and Kimberly-Ann Collins. But by far Green’s biggest backer to date was the mayor herself, Tishaura Jones.[1]
