Key races we're watching
Party contests for every statewide officer are on the ballot: Governor, Lieutenant Governor, Attorney General, Secretary of State, and Treasurer.
There are also primaries for a U.S. Senate seat, every U.S. House race, and much of the Missouri General Assembly.
Missouri voters will see two statewide ballot issues: Amendment 1, on property tax exemptions for child care facilities, and Amendment 4, requiring Kansas City to increase funding to the KCPD.
And that's not even to mention the all-too-important local races — such as prosecutor and sheriff.
