Millions already pouring into Missouri ballot fights over taxes and majority rule
Missouri voters are being flooded with ads over two constitutional amendments that would reshape how the state taxes income and how citizens amend the constitution.
The campaigns for and against Amendments 4 and 5 have already raised $14.5 million. Through Tuesday, ballot measure radio and television spending had topped $3.3 million — roughly four times what primary candidates in all other contests have spent so far, according to Federal Communications Commission records.
The names in the disclaimers may tell voters what the committees buying the ads want to do. But finding out who is providing the money can require digging through campaign finance reports, corporate records and federal advertising files.
One early example is a Missouri Promise PAC ad attacking “big tech” and data centers as a reason to pass Amendment 5.
