ISSUES

Voters in the St. Louis County Public Library system will be asked to vote on a measure, Proposition L, which would call for a 6-cent tax increase to fund improvements at facilities system-wide.

STATEWIDE BALLOT ISSUES

• Proposition A, which if passed, would put the City of St. Louis Police Department under local control.

• Constitutional Amendment 3, would reform the judicial selection process in Missouri at the Supreme Court and Court of Appeals level. Proponents of the amendment have abandoned their campaign for the measure, The St. Louis Post-Dispatch reported, citing bias in the ballot language approved by Missouri Secretary of State Robin Carnhan.

• Proposition B, would increase tobacco taxes $0.0365 per cigarette and 25% of the manufacturer's invoice price for roll-your-own tobacco and 15% for other tobacco products, according to the ballot language. Estimated revenues of at least $283 million would fund public education in Missouri along with smoking prevention programs.

• Proposition E would prohibit the Governor or any state agency, from establishing or operating state-based health insurance exchanges unless authorized by a vote of the people or by the legislature.
