Voters Decide Local Leadership, Tax Levies, and Statewide Referendums Across Multiple U.S. Regions

Voters across various U.S. localities are heading to the polls to decide on multiple important issues and elections. In Missouri, residents are voting on tax levies for community colleges and school sports complexes, as well as city infrastructure and governance changes. Miami voters face a crowded mayoral race with 13 candidates, including former mayors, alongside decisions on four referendums impacting city charter review, land sales, and term limits. Orlando voters are choosing among 12 candidates for three city commissioner seats, with a focus on development, traffic, and public safety issues. On a broader scale, voters in California, Texas, and Maine are addressing major statewide ballot measures, including partisan congressional map changes in California, noncitizen voting restrictions in Texas, and new voter ID requirements in Maine. These elections reflect significant local and state governance decisions influencing community development and electoral policies.
