Missouri voters will cast ballots in races for president, governor, US Senate and the state’s eight US House seats. None of the races are expected to be competitive, according to ratings from the Cook Political Report.
Voters will also decide on three key ballot measures: one that would repeal a statewide abortion ban; one that would increase the state minimum wage and require employers to provide paid sick leave; and another that would amend language in the state constitution about voting eligibility and also outlaw ranked choice voting.
Repeal statewide abortion ban; amend state constitution to establish the right to make reproductive health-care decisions; allow state to restrict or ban abortion after fetal viability except when necessary to protect life or health

Note: Race and ethnicity shares are based on the Citizen Voting Age Population (CVAP) from the Census Bureau ACS 5-year estimates, 2018-2022. Median household incomes are based on inflation-adjusted data from January to December 2023; educational attainment shares are for the population 25 years and over, both based on the 2023 Census ACS 1-year estimates. Regional price parity for housing is calculated by the Bureau of Economic Analysis and represents how much more (above 100) or less (less than 100) expensive housing rent expenditures are in a state compared to the national average in 2022, the latest available year. The three largest occupations per state are based on the Bureau of Labor Statistics release of Occupational Employment and Wage Statistics in 2023, the latest available data.
