Alton, Mo. \u2013 <\/strong>Missouri, as well as the rest of our nation, held its general elections yesterday. The results of our state are in. Here is how people and issues stand.<\/p>\n

Oregon County<\/h3>\n

Oregon County has 7,320 registered voters of which 3,121 came out to cast their ballot. Here is the rundown. For U.S. Senator replacing Senator Blunt, Attorney General Schmitt won with 77% of the votes. For state auditor, incumbent Fitzpatrick won with 82% of the votes. Representative Smith won for US Representative for District 8 again. At the state level, incumbent Atchison won the representative district for Oregon County beginning in January.<\/p>\n

Local Electors<\/h4>\n

Locally, those who won in the primary elections had no one running against them. Therefore, they won. These include Judge Harvey Allen, David Stubblefield, Tracy Bridges, Betty Grooms, Dawn Holman, Linda Parrott, Justin Kelley, and Ila Smith.<\/p>\n

Judges<\/h4>\n

Oregon County residents voted on a number of judges. Each of the three incumbents was voted back into office. They are Judge Fischer, Judge Ransom, Judge Goodman, and Judge Burrell.<\/p>\n

Amendments<\/h4>\n

Oregon County had its own say in how the amendments should be. Amendments 4 and 5\u00a0 are the only amendments that our county passed. Our county also voted against having a Constitutional convention.<\/p>\n

State Level Results<\/h3>\n

At the state level, many of the people Oregon County voted for were consistent with the state. Attorney General Schmitt on the seat for US senator. Fitzpatrick again won state auditor, and Jason Smith won US Representative for District 8. Both people running for the Missouri Supreme court won. They are Judges Fischer and Ransom. The two running for judges in the southern court of appeals won, They are Burrell and Goodman.<\/p>\n

Amendments<\/h4>\n

Amendment 1 did not pass. However, amendments 3,4, and 5 all passed. The highly unbeneficial amendment 3 passed with only a margin of 127,000 with over 1 million voting in favor of destroying their brain cells. The request for a constitutional convention was voted down. Perhaps it should have been phrased as a convention of the states?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
