FIND YOUR SAMPLE BALLOT
Each county election board will provide a sample ballot, which should look identical to the ballot you will use to vote. This sample ballot will allow you to learn who is running for the offices in your election, and what issues are on your ballot. Reviewing a sample ballot can help you feel more confident as you go to vote.
To find out if you have an election on Tuesday you can use the following sites:
CITY/COUNTY | ELECTION OFFICE WEBSITE | COUNTY ELECTION PH# |
Kansas City | 816-842-4820 | |
Jackson County | 816-325-4600 | |
Cass County | 816-380-8102 | |
Platte County | 816 858-4400 | |
Clay County | 816-415-VOTE(8683) | |
All Missouri | (800) 669-8683 |
RESEARCH THE CANDIDATES AND ISSUES
Another way to feel confident as you prepare to vote is to do your homework about the candidates and issues. Sites like the League of Women Voters Vote411, and Project VoteSmart, can be useful, as well as candidate websites. To learn more about question number 3 on the KC ballot click HERE.

FIND YOUR POLLING PLACE
Go to the Missouri Secretary of State’s site: https://voteroutreach.sos.mo.gov/PRD/VoterOutreach/VOSearch.aspx and enter your house number, street name, and zip code.
BRING YOUR ID
Beginning this year, Missouri voters are required to bring acceptable photo ID to the polls. Your driver’s license is just one option - find other acceptable forms here: http://www.gotvoterid.com/valid-photo-ids.html
If you received a voter confirmation or information postcard in the mail from your county, you do NOT need to bring it, and it will NOT serve as proof of registration or identity.
BRING YOUR FRIEND
Tell everyone you know about the election, post on Facebook and Twitter that you votes, remind your friends and family and ask them if they voted! Tweet us using the hashtag #IVotedMO
IF YOU HAVE ANY ISSUES!
Remember If you or any other voter runs into a problem at the polling place, call: 866-OUR-VOTE (866-687-8683) on the spot and report the issue!
