"The question of law upon which we are requesting an Attorney General's opinion involves an interpretation of Chapter 114 RSFlo 1969 concerning voter registration. When a registered voter resides in an area of the county which is annexed by a city subsequent to his regis tration, who has the responsibility to change his voting precinct on the voter registration book? Does this responsibility fall to the County Clerk, the City, or to the individual voter himself?"

"A voter resides in one of the rural precincts of Callaway County, Missouri. He properly registers to vote in Callaway County as a voter in that rural precinct. Subsequent to his registration, the City of Fulton, annexes the area in which he lives. He continues to live in the same house but is now inside the City of Fulton and is in a Fulton city ward, rather than the rural precinct. The voter does not contact the County Clerk's office and on the registration books he is shown as a resident of a rural precinct. This voter then desires to vote in a City election. He is turned down at the polls because he is listed on the registration books as a resident of a rural district. When an area is annexed by a City, who has the responsibility for the change to be made on the registration books? Does the City have the responsibility to notify the County Clerk, does the County Clerk have the responsibility to change each person in an annexed area, or does the individual voter have the responsibility for notifying the County Clerk's office?"
