SB 327 - Missouri currently has a "modified" open primary
law in which voters may vote for the candidates of the party of
their choice but, after making that choice, they cannot vote for
candidates of the other party. This act requires that voters be
given a single primary ballot and allows them to vote for the
candidates from either, or from all, of the parties on the
ballot. The winner in each party would then be placed on the
general election ballot.
