SPRINGFIELD, Mo. — The November general election will ask Missouri voters to choose a U.S. Senator and several U.S. Representatives. Statewide lawmakers will be on the ballot, as well as several constitutional amendments, including Amendment 3, which asks voters if they want to legalize recreational marijuana use and expunge nonviolent offenders with marijuana convictions.

Below are sample ballots for counties in the Ozarks. Many counties don’t have contested local races on the ballot. Ozarks First is still working to gather ballots from every county in our viewing area and will update this story as we obtain more.
