Parker, a judge depicted inTrue Grit;James Sidney Rollins, known as the "Father of the University of Missouri"; andKenny Hulshof, unsuccessful candidate to becomeGovernor of Missouri.

The district no longer existed in 2013 after Missouri lost a congressional seat following the2010 census. Initial redistricting maps placed most of the district north of theMissouri River in a redrawn6th congressional district, and most of the rest of the district in a redrawn3rd congressional district.^[1] The last congressman from the old 9th, Luetkemeyer was subsequently elected to the 3rd.

George W. Bush defeatedJohn Kerry 59% to 41% in this district in 2004. In 2008, Rep. Kenny Hulshof announced that he would seek the Republican nomination forGovernor of Missouri. As a whole, the 9th district leaned towards the Republican Party, with the exception being Columbia, which often leaned towards the Democratic Party.
