|}St. Louis held its first-ever [[approval voting]] primary on March 2, 2021. Lewis E. Reed and Andrew Jones (a [[Republican Party]] candidate) were eliminated. The new approval-based primary was a non-partisan election, though candidates were allowed to state their party preference on the ballot. The top three candidates (Tishaura Jones, Cara Spencer, and Lewis Reed) declared their party preference "[[Democratic Party]]" and Andrew Jones declared his party preference "[[Republican Party]]". Because they received the largest number of votes of approval, Jones (Tishuara) and Spencer advanced to the general election. Reed and Jones (Andrew), as well as all other candidates, were eliminated from consideration. ▼

▲|}St. Louis held its first-ever [[approval voting]] primary on March 2, 2021
Because they received the largest number of votes of approval (thus having the highest approval rating as measured by the ballots), Tishuara Jones and Cara Spencer advanced to the general election. Lewis E. Reed (who also preferred the [[Democratic Party]]) and Andrew Jones (who preferred the [[Republican Party]]) were not allowed to have their name printed on the general election ballot.
▲Reed was the President of the St. Louis Board of Aldermen since 2007, and a candidate for mayor in 2013 and 2017 (see [[w:2013 St. Louis mayoral election]] and [[w:2017 St. Louis mayoral election]] on English Wikipedia). Reed has offered his support for an effort to repeal approval voting.<ref>{{Cite web|last=Schlinkmann|first=Mark|title=Effort underway to repeal ‘approval voting’ in St. Louis, replace it with new system|url=https://www.stltoday.com/news/local/govt-and-politics/effort-underway-to-repeal-approval-voting-in-st-louis-replace-it-with-new-system/article_2c3bad65-1e46-58b6-8b9f-1d7f49d0aaeb.html|access-date=2022-02-26|website=STLtoday.com|language=en}}</ref>
