St. Louis-area voters cast ballots Tuesday on several Missouri constitutional amendments and in midterm elections for the House of Representatives, judicial retention and county-level elections.
Key issues include Amendment 3, which would again ban abortion in the state, and Amendment 6, which would make it much more difficult for lawmakers to overturn voter-approved statutes and constitutional amendments. Meanwhile, U.S. Rep. Ann Wagner could face her most competitive race in recent years as she vies with Democrat Fred Wellman to represent Missouri’s 2nd Congressional District.
Polling stations close at 7 p.m. Results will be updated below throughout election night.
