JUST A REMINDER
THE APRIL 7TH MUNICIPAL ELECTION
WAS POSTPONED UNTIL JUNE 2ND
This year’s election will be different than any other has been. Given the growing concern surrounding COVID-19 and the large number of people elections attract, Governor Parsons stated that postponing Missouri’s municipal elections is a necessary step to help combat the spread of the virus and protect the health and safety of Missouri voters.
Pursuant to Governor Mike Parson’s Executive Order 20-02 declaring a state of emergency in response to COVID-19 and a request from Secretary of State Jay Ashcroft, on March 18, 2020 Governor Parson signed Executive Order 20-03 ordering all Missouri municipal elections previously scheduled for April 7, 2020, to be postponed to June 2, 2020.
Due to the postponement of the April 7th election, all current Council members will remain seated until after the June 2nd election.
Ward I Councilman, Mark Stief will not be seeking re-election this year. Beverly Bates was the only candidate that filed for the Ward I seat. Ward II Councilman Curt Pierce re-filed for the position and is unopposed.
So be sure to watch the mail for your June ballot information.
