Backers of Amendment 1, a ballot measure known as Clean Missouri, submitted signatures to the Secretary of State's office last May. Voters will decide its fate November 6.

Midterm elections are just around the corner, but much of Missouri's ballot is covered with pot — and redistricting, ethics rules, a gas tax and a minimum wage increase. Ballot questions join the U.S. Senate race as the big-ticket items on November 6 in Missouri. Host Brian Ellison talks with KCUR's Samuel King, Clean Missouri campaign director Sean Soendker Nicholson and Kansas City Star reporter Allison Kite.
