Mid-Missouri voters might not know their congressional district until after April election

COLUMBIA, Mo. (KMIZ) - The Secretary of State's Office backs the claim that the "Missouri First" map is in effect, but the Boone County clerk said Friday she can't change district lines for voters until after the April election.

"Right now in the voter registration system that's maintained by the Secretary of State's Office, there's not actually an option for us to assign people to the new congressional districts," Boone County Clerk Brianna Lennon said. "So, we can't do anything."

The county clerk's office oversees elections, including determining in which district a voter resides. But Missouri's congressional district lines are at the center of a legal battle, Lennon said. Voters are still in the 2022 districts at least until after the April election.

Meanwhile, filing for the seats begins on Tuesday.
