ST. LOUIS, MO — U.S. Sen. Bernie Sanders and former Vice President Joe Biden, both of whom are seeking the Democratic nomination for president, each visited St. Louis in recent days ahead of Missouri's March 10 primary election.

Biden held a rally Saturday morning in Kiener Plaza, where he spoke for about 10 minutes to a crowd of several thousand supporters — and a handful of protesters. Sanders spoke at the Stifel Theatre on Monday, where theater staff said 2,850 people were in attendance.

Polls will open Tuesday at 6 a.m. and close at 7 p.m. If you are in line at 7, no matter how long the line is, you must be allowed to vote, so stay in line, even if it's past closing time.
