Raymore Missouri Vote Results

Question P fails; 2 races decided within single digit margin

By Raymore Journal staff

August 4, 2022

Editor’s Notes : These are only Cass County results, not the entire state of Missouri.

The City of Raymore asked the residents to approve of a local use tax to pay for more police and other understaffed positions, and the voters responded with their ballots: No, thank you!

With the local use tax rejected for a second time, it is back to the drawing board for the current city staff figuring out a way to fund much-needed positions. Based on an independent study, the city is understaffed by at least four police officers and several Parks and Recreation positions.

Belton residents also rejected their city’s version of Question P, Proposition 1.

The message from residents is clear: No. More. Taxes.

As of press time, there were two races won within single-digit votes. Republican Sherri Gallick beat Jessica Jane Levsen by four votes for the State Representative of District 62. Republican Mike Rumley won over James G. Eftink by eight votes for Associate Circuit Judge for Division 4.

Of the more than 79,500 registered voters, nearly 21,000, more than a quarter, showed up to the ballot box on Aug. 2.
