State Senate District 2:
Democrat Michael Sinclair takes on Republican Nick Schroer. The two are vying to replace Republican State Sen. Bob Onder, who is leaving the seat due to reaching his term limit. Onder announced his intent to run for St. Charles County Executive, but ended up dropping out this summer.
State Senate District 24:
Democrat Tracy McCreery takes on Republican George Hruza. The two are seeking the spot currently held by Democratic State Sen. Jill Schupp, who ran for U.S. Congress in 2020 but lost to Republican Ann Wagner.
Five amendments:
Amendment 1: Would allow the state treasurer to invest state money into highly-rated municipal bonds. Statewide, estimates project that the measure would increase interest revenue by at least $2 million yearly, with no costs.
Amendment 3: Would legalize recreational marijuana for adults in Missouri and expunge the records of some people convicted of low-level marijuana offenses.
Amendment 4: Would allow the state legislature to require cities to increase the minimum required funding for a police department, which would specifically impact the Kansas City police department.
Amendment 5: Would create a department specifically for Missouri’s National Guard, which supporters say would create a more direct line of communication with the National Guard.
Constitutional Convention Question: Would establish a convention to revise and amend the state Constitution.
