In 2006, Missourians voted on a proposition (Proposition B) to increase the minimum wage in the state to $6.50 an hour; it passed Franklin County with 77.61 percent of the vote. The proposition strongly passed every single county in Missouri with 75.94 percent voting in favor as the minimum wage was increased to $6.50 an hour in the state. During the same election, voters in five other states also strongly approved increases in the minimum wage. </p><p><b>2020 Missouri Presidential primary</b><sup id="cite_ref-25" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-25"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>25<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> </p><p><b>Republican</b> </p><p>President <a href="/wiki/Donald_Trump" title="Donald Trump">Donald Trump</a> won Franklin County with 97.35 percent of the vote; all other Republican candidates received less than 1 percent of the vote. </p><p><b>Democratic</b> </p><p>Forty-seventh Vice President <a href="/wiki/Joe_Biden" title="Joe Biden">Joe Biden</a> won Franklin County with 59 percent of the vote; U.S. Senator <a href="/wiki/Bernie_Sanders" title="Bernie Sanders">Bernie Sanders</a> (I-Vermont) came in second with 35.03 percent. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading4"><h4 id="2016_Missouri_Presidential_primary">2016 Missouri Presidential primary</h4><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Franklin_County,_Missouri&amp;action=edit&amp;section=21" title="Edit section: 2016 Missouri Presidential primary"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <dl><dt>Republican</dt></dl> <p><a href="/wiki/Donald_Trump" title="Donald Trump">Donald Trump</a> won Franklin County with 44.49 percent of the vote; U.S. Senator <a href="/wiki/Ted_Cruz" title="Ted Cruz">Ted Cruz</a> (R-Texas) came in second with 39.77 percent, Governor <a href="/wiki/John_Kasich" title="John Kasich">John Kasich</a> (R-Ohio) came in distant third with 7.65 percent, and U.S. Senator <a href="/wiki/Marco_Rubio" title="Marco Rubio">Marco Rubio</a> (R-Florida) came in fourth with 5.63 percent. </p> <dl><dt>Democratic</dt></dl> <p>U.S. Senator <a href="/wiki/Bernie_Sanders" title="Bernie Sanders">Bernie Sanders</a> (I-Vermont) won Franklin County with 55.41 percent of the vote while former <a href="/wiki/United_States_Secretary_of_State" title="United States Secretary of State">Secretary of State</a> <a href="/wiki/Hillary_Clinton" title="Hillary Clinton">Hillary Clinton</a> came in second with 42.89 percent. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading4"><h4 id="2012_Missouri_Presidential_primary">2012 Missouri Presidential primary</h4><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Franklin_County,_Missouri&amp;action=edit&amp;section=22" title="Edit section: 2012 Missouri Presidential primary"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <dl><dt>Republican</dt></dl> <p>Former U.S. Senator <a href="/wiki/Rick_Santorum" title="Rick Santorum">Rick Santorum</a> (R-Pennsylvania) won Franklin County with 60.12 percent of the vote.
