Senator Barbara Anne Washington’s Legislative Column for Sept. 30, 2024

Flex Your Civic Muscles!

Hey District 9! As the month of September comes to a close, I wanted to take this opportunity to encourage every eligible resident in our community to flex their civic muscles and vote in the Nov. 5 General Election. The deadline to register to vote with the Secretary of State’s office is Oct. 9, so please take a few minutes to ensure your name is on the voter roll and your information is updated.

Ballot Issues: What You Need to Know Before Election Day

In addition to choosing which candidate you want to represent you in government, Missouri voters will have a chance to weigh in on seven ballot measures on Election Day. Please join me and several community partners for an important ballot discussion on Oct. 1. We’ll explain each amendment in detail and answer any questions you may still have about the proposed ballots. Share this flyer with your neighbors and join us Tuesday evening at the Delta Athenaeum! Reservations are encouraged but not required. Call 573-751-3158 or email Brian.Farmer@senate.mo.gov to RSVP.
