Ray, Lafayette, and Saline had a history of voting Democratic, including in 2010 when they voted for Skelton's re-election instead of for Hartzler. So those three counties were put in MO-05 because of the probability that they would more likely vote for Cleaver than for Graves or for Hartzler, which has not come to pass yet. Those three counties have not stuck with their historical voting pattern; they've become like the rest of the rural counties in Missouri.
