Questionnaire Candidate Responses
It is extremely important that you compare
the candidates' responses to the right questionnaire. There are two different
(yet similar) questionnaires; one for the Missouri Federal level candidates
and one for Missouri State level candidates. To see whether or not you agree
with the candidate who is vying for your vote, you will need to compare
his or her answers to the appropriate questionnaire. We recommend that you
first list the answers of your favorite candidate/s on a separate piece
of paper then go to the appropriate questionnaire and compare their answers.
This will save you the time and effort of having to toggle back and forth
between the questionnaire and your candidates' answers.
