Political history

Jacob Hummel first ran for the Missouri House of Representatives in 2008, seeking the seat for House district 108. He defeated fellow Democrat Arthur Gansner by earning nearly 86-percent of the votes. No Republicans chose to run in the November general election, making Hummel's election a mere formality.

In 2010 Hummel was unopposed in the August Democratic primary. In the November general election he defeated Republican challenger Joe L. Rusch by over 2,400 votes to earn a second term in the legislature.

Due to House redistricting following the 2010 United States Census the former 108th districts boundaries were altered and it was also renumbered as the new 81st District. By whatever number Jacob Hummel remained victorious. Facing no challenger in either the August Democratic primary or the November general election, Hummel was elected to a third term in the Missouri House.
