KANSAS CITY, Mo. — With the primary election just days away, all 11 candidates seeking to snag one of two tickets for June’s general election to be the next mayor of Kansas City, Missouri are racing to the finish line.
On Tuesday, April 2, voters in Kansas City will chose between the candidates. The top two vote-getters will advance to the June 18 general election. The winner of that race will replace outgoing Mayor Sly James.
