Ballot Measure Information Session

In this session, the League of Women Voters of Kansas City will explain how the ballot measure process works in Missouri and provide a balanced overview of the ballot measures the voters will see on the ballot.

There will be several ballot measures on the November 8 general election ballot which require voter approval. One of these measures directly affects Kansas City and would allow the state legislature to require Kansas City to increase police spending without state reimbursement. Among other measures on the ballot, one would call for a Missouri Constitutional Convention while another would seek to legalize recreational marijuana and expunge nonviolent marijuana offenses from criminal records.

The voter registration deadline for the November 8 election is October 12 and you will have an opportunity to register to vote at this session!

Light refreshments will be served.
