Missouri Secretary of State’s Office Office alerts voters of election scam

The Missouri Secretary of State’s Office is alerting voters about an election scam. 

Scammers claiming to be from the Missouri Secretary of State’s Office have called some voters and have claimed that the absentee ballots filled out by those voters did not count.
Secretary of State Jay Ashcroft says his office is not making any such calls and that your ballot is in safe hands. 

He says to directly contact your local election authority if you have any questions.
