Today is the last day to get registered, if you wish to vote in the August 8 election. You must do so, before 5 pm.

In Springfield there is only one issue for Greene County voters and that is if the city shall impose an additional sales tax of 3 percent on the retail sale of adult-use marijuana with proceeds from such tax to be used for public safety, mental health services, housing, and substance abuse services.

If you haven’t registered to vote yet and want to, you can do it one of several different ways.

1. Visit the Office of the County Clerk in the Historic Courthouse at 940 North Boonville Ave, Room 113 in Springfield during business hours of Monday-Friday, 8 a.m. to 5:00 p.m.

2. Eligible voters can also visit any Missouri Department of Revenue vehicle license office, or any branch of the Springfield-Greene County Library.

3. Mail-in (postcard) registrations will be accepted if postmarked by Wednesday, July 12. Voter registration information is also available online.
