JEFFERSON CITY, Mo. — Candidate filing for Missouri’s August primary opens at 8 a.m. Tuesday and closes March 29 at 5 p.m.

Missouri Secretary of State John “Jay” Ashcroft says, “Individuals planning to file for office must possess a paid filing fee receipt from a political party; a copy of an affidavit (does not apply to candidates running for U.S. Congress) filed with the Department of Revenue; and proof of identity — voter identification card, Missouri driver’s license, birth certificate, or other form of certified identification.
