Missouri Secretary of State Jay Ashcroft was in Gallatin on May 19 to deliver election supplies to Ronetta Burton, Daviess County Election Authority. Prior to the COVID-19 pandemic, these supplies might have been considered unusual items needed to conduct an election. Due to the pandemic, Ashcroft delivered much needed masks, hand sanitizer, face shields, and 6-foot floor markers to be used during upcoming elections in Daviess County.
