Tuesday's general election in Missouri decided one of the most closely watched U.S. Senate races in the country. Missouri voters also were asked whether they want to raise the minimum wage, pay a higher gas tax, reform redistricting and ethics for state government and legalize medical marijuana.
Below are unofficial results from the races and ballot initiatives that KCUR determined to be competitive. Other, and eventually official, results, are available from the Kansas City Election Board, Jackson County Election Board, Clay County Board of Election Commissioners and Platte County Elections Board and the Missouri Secretary of State.
