Related: About this forumAre there any useful voting guides for the ballot measures and judges?
Some are obvious choices. Other's I would like expert opinions on.
I went to the League of Women's Voters and NAACP for recommendations, but found nothing useful ( ie, we support "Yes," we support "No" ).
I was planning on voting today, but I don't want to misunderstand a measure, nor do I want to retain right-wing judges.
Any help/links/whatever would be appreciated.

(20,161 posts)I get their history, what associations they are members of and other bio information. It helps me and maybe it can give you some insight for you. 🗳️

I feel like an informed voter, but I understand why uninformed voters have such a difficult time finding resources.

It's just statewide, but it says you can enter your address for local info.

Vote411.org (a League of Women Voters site) used to be really good about local stuff, but it hardly seems to have anything anymore.

Scroll down a ways for the Dem. party's stance on statewide ballot issues.
Hope this helps!

Remember these names. Write them down. These two Missouri Supreme Court Justices will be on the ballot for retention.
KELLY BRONIEC
GINGER GOOCH
Both voted to block Amendment 3 from the ballot.
Vote No to retain them.
Get them out of here.

As for judges I saw that people are saying to vote no on retaining seats for judges appointed by Parsons which can be found on ballotpedia.
Just put in their names to see who appointed them.
