Our endorsements for Tuesday’s ballot
Tuesday’s ballot presents voters with some extraordinarily consequential choices, from choosing who will represent the St. Louis region in Congress to statewide measures that could raise sales taxes and make it harder for citizen-driven ballot initiatives to win approval.

In the fall of 2025, St. Louis welcomed the National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency (NGA) to North City, settling at Jefferson and Cass avenues, sprawling across a 97-acre footprint.
