Missourians have until 5 p.m. on March 10 to register to vote in the April 6 election.
The annual election is for school board and municipal offices.
This year, there also are two statewide issues on the ballot.
Secretary of State Bekki Cook said, "Voting is not just a right, but a responsibility we have as citizens of a democracy."
Missourians who are unsure where to register can contact the secretary of state's office at 1-800-NOW VOTE.
