Southwest Missouri’s Drury University will host a virtual forum tonight
Southwest Missouri’s Drury University will host a virtual forum this (Wednesday) evening about Amendment Three, one of the biggest issues on Missouri’s November ballot.
Tonight’s one-hour forum begins at 6. Missouri voters approved “Clean Missouri” in November 2018. It required a nonpartisan demographer to draw state legislative districts. Amendment Three would transfer the responsibility of drawing the districts from the demographer to a governor-appointed bipartisan commission. During tonight’s forum, Cosby State Senator Dan Hegeman and “No On 3” director Sean Soendker-Nickolson will be speaking via zoom. Hegeman sponsored the bill to place Amendment Three on the ballot.
