Today is election day in America and it is no different here in Christian County as not only are there national elections on tap but local ones as well.  Statewide on every ballot, there will be a question concerning election worker protection and candidate accountability—questioning whether any candidate be subject to civil penalties if they interfere with an election worker’s official duties.  Another question concerns a 3% additional tax on income greater than $1 million. There is also a question concerning assisted reproductive health referendum and whether health insurance should cover assisted reproductive treatments. 

In contested races, the presidential election sees a showdown between former President Donald Trump and Vice President Kamala Harris, the 95th district will vote between Mike Coffey and Kristen Chiaro, and the 96th district will vote between Lisa Smith and Sue Scherer.  The Christian County Board District 4 will see two out of three elected between Jean Vandenbergh, Miranda Langen, and Kenny Crowe.  Finally, the county will decide whether Amanda S. Ade-Harlow will be retained and vote on the property tax extension limit for the Rochester Public Library District.
