You'll be casting ballots in Missouri in November on Constitutional Amendment 7, which has several provisions. The biggest one would make Missouri's Constitution consistent with state law by only allowing citizens of the United States to vote. The measure changes one word, from "all" to "only" citizens. The other provisions of 7 pertain to ranked voting and plurality winners. Missouri Secretary of State Jay Ashcroft, who unsuccessfully sought the GOP gubernatorial nomination in August, appeared this morning on 939 the Eagle's "Gary Nolan show." Secretary Ashcroft says Missouri needs a law that requires individuals to show proof of citizenship before they register and before they vote. Democrats like former State Rep. Chris Kelly (D-Columbia) say the law already prohibits this. Former Representative Kelly says the Missouri Constitution says voters must be citizens. But State Rep. Adam Schwadron (R-St. Charles) and other Republicans say it reads that all citizens are eligible to vote. That's why they want the one-word change. Gary Nolan and Secretary Ashcroft also discussed Amendment 2, which involves sports wagering, and Amendment, and Amendment 5, which would allow a riverboat casino at the Lake of the Ozarks:

Missouri Secretary of State Jay Ashcroft is seeking the GOP gubernatorial nomination in August, meaning the secretary of state's office will be an open seat in November. Eight Republicans are running in the August primary, and three Democrats are running as well. St. Louis Republican Valentina Gomez is seeking the GOP nomination for secretary of state against seven other primary opponents. Those opponents include House Speaker Dean Plocher (R-Des Peres), former House Speaker Pro Tem Shane Schoeller (R-Willard), State Sens. Denny Hoskins (R-Warrensburg) and Mary Elizabeth Coleman (R-Arnold) and State Rep. Adam Schwadron (R-St. Charles). Jamie Corley of St. Louis and Mike Carter of St. Charles are also running as Republicans. Ms. Gomez joined us live on 939 the Eagle's "Wake Up Mid-Missouri", predicting she will win the August GOP primary. She describes herself as "the future of the Republican Party" and slammed her primary opponents without naming them, saying she's not bought and paid for. Ms. Gomez is calling for an America First agenda, along with single-day voting and paper ballots. She also criticizes the GOP supermajorities in Jefferson City for not getting more wins:

Missouri's 2024 GOP and Democratic gubernatorial primaries are fast approaching. Election day is Tuesday August 6. "Missouri Times" publisher Scott Faughn joined us live on 939 the Eagle's "Wake Up Mid-Missouri", telling listeners that GOP Lieutenant Governor Mike Kehoe has triple the amount of money of both of his major challengers combined. They are Secretary of State Jay Ashcroft and State Sen. William Eigel (R-Weldon Spring). Mr. Faughn tells listeners that Mr. Kehoe is impressive and that people believe in him. Faughn also says he expects the trial attorneys to donate to Senator Eigel's gubernatorial campaign this week. We also discussed an education bill signed into law by Governor Parson that allows charter schools to operate in Columbia Public Schools (CPS) and all Boone County school districts. CPS Superintendent Dr. Brian Yearwood has blasted the bill, telling business leaders in March that the bill would cause CPS to have to reduce teachers and staff. Dr. Yearwood tells 939 the Eagle that charter schools will lead to the demise of public schools. Missouri Senate President Pro Tem Caleb Rowden (R-Columbia), who sponsored the charter school provision, disagrees with that, saying Dr. Yearwood's comments are ludicrous. Senator Rowden says the bill offers $450-million in new dollars for public education, in addition to $300-million in new dollars coming in the next few years. Mr. Faughn tells listeners that the charter school provision was Senator Rowden's top priority. Faughn tells listeners that the bill will take some resources away from public schools. Mr. Faughn also criticized Superintendent Yearwood during the interview:
