Missouri voters are about to decide on a ballot measure that could radically alter how their state constitution is amended—requiring citizen initiatives to win approval in all eight congressional districts instead of just a statewide majority. Supporters say it ensures broader consensus, while critics warn it will stifle direct democracy by making it nearly impossible for grassroots movements to pass laws—even if they have strong statewide support. A counter-petition is already circulating to protect the current system, setting the stage for a fierce battle over who gets to shape Missouri’s future: the people or the legislature.
