Each month, you will have a chance to send us questions about anything and everything. Then we’ll curate up to four questions that go head-to-head in a voting round.
The race to replace Kansas City, Missouri, Mayor Sly James is heating up, and we need your help covering the election. So we wondered: Is there anything – seriously, anything – that has you puzzled, curious or concerned about the people running for office? If you could ask a mayoral candidate one thing, what would it be?
What issues matter to you? Topics include crime in the metro, affordable housing and tax incentives for businesses and developers. This is an open call to all curious Kansas Citians. Send in your questions. Type and submit below.
