Blodgett, Missouri Public Records

Registration must be completed by the fourth Wednesday prior to any election. At the polls, Missouri requires voters to present identification such as a Missouri driver's license, state ID, military ID, passport, or other government-issued photo ID. Because the community is unincorporated with no municipal government, there are no city council or mayoral elections here. Residents participate only in county, state, and federal elections. Voters elect Scott County officials including County Commissioners (Presiding and Associate Commissioners), Sheriff, Assessor, Recorder of Deeds, County Clerk, Prosecuting Attorney, Coroner, Collector, Treasurer, and Public Administrator on staggered terms. To locate their assigned polling place, residents can use the lookup tool on the Missouri Secretary of State's website at https://voteroutreach.sos.mo.gov/portal/, or contact the Scott County Clerk's office directly. In Missouri, public election records include voter registration lists (available for purchase by qualified requesters), campaign finance reports filed with the Missouri Ethics Commission (searchable at https://mec.mo.gov), candidate filings and petitions, and precinct-level election results. The County Clerk publishes unofficial results on election night, with certified results available after canvassing. Absentee voting in Missouri is available for voters who meet specific statutory criteria including absence on election day, incapacity or confinement due to illness, religious belief or practice, employment as an election authority, or incarceration (if still eligible). Absentee ballot applications must be submitted to the Scott County Clerk by the second Wednesday prior to the election for mail ballots, or in person up to 5:00 p.m. The day before the election.
