CERTIFICATES OF ELECTION, 1838-2019

Arrangement: Chronological

Scope and Content

This series contains certificates of election for candidates who received the most votes. These certificates are not the actual commissions sent to and kept by individual elected officials (RSMo 115.523). Instead, these records certify which candidates have been elected. Often, on the basis of this certification, a commission is then issued, particularly in the case of county officials. Also included in this series are recount certificates that declare the winner of contested elections.

Coverage is haphazard except for a specific type of certificate called county officers elect; this pre-printed form must be filed with the office of secretary of state (RSMo 51.040) after each general election. County officers elect are first found in the early 1870s with a gap until 1892, at which time they generally appear every two years thereafter.

Note that a few oaths of office are found in this series.

Certificates of election for judicial commissions are found here under Supreme Court Rule 10.14. For non-partisan judicial commissions, “the canvassers at an election shall consist of the clerk in whose office the election is to be held, and two or more members of the Bar or judges of the court in the office of whose clerk the election is to be held, designated to act as such by such court or by the presiding judge thereof.” Within ten days, the clerk certifies the election results to the secretary of state.

Arrangement early on for certificates of election is either by date of election or by date filed; therefore, check the year of the election as well as the year after. Many were filed in January of the next year. For more recent General Assembly lists, the date of the session (usually the same date as the document) is used, not the date of the election. Some certificates for county officials in special elections are found in the certificates of election rather than the county officers elect, especially in odd numbered years. County officers elect are arranged alphabetically by the name of the county.

Lists (or roll calls) of Missouri state senators and representatives elected to the General Assembly are found here and are filed by the date of the accompanying certificate for that particular session (where available) not the date that the candidates were actually elected.
