KC Beacon: Crucial dates leading up to Missouri’s 2022 general election
By Meg Cunningham, The Beacon
The November general election in Missouri is fast approaching, with a high-profile U.S. Senate race on the ballot along with votes on several crucial issues and numerous races for state and local offices.
Thanks to a new law that took effect on Aug. 28, voters will encounter new rules and deadlines this year.
For instance, pending the results of court challenges, voters need a government-issued photo ID to cast a ballot. They also have two weeks of no-excuse in-person absentee voting available to them for the first time.
To help voters keep up with the changes, The Beacon presents a list of important dates heading into the 2022 general election season.
