MORE IN MISSOURI + GALLERY UPDATE

Idina’s Democratic stumping in Missouri for Barack Obama’s campaign continues following today’s events in Kansas City and Columbia tomorrow in St. Louis.

Taye will be speaking at an event at St. Louis University’s Busch Student Center on Sunday, Oct 5. I’m unsure if Idina herself will be doing anything at this event, but she will likely be in attendance supporting her husband and her candidate, so if you’re in the area and you attend, be sure to let us know how it goes.

Special thanks to Brittany for collecting and donating the photos! Check them out by clicking the thumbnails below.
