Join us as Rick Stream, Republican Director - St. Louis County Board of Elections, speaks on the voting process here in St. Louis County. 

Rick Stream is a lifelong resident of Kirkwood and has been serving as the Republican Director of Elections in St. Louis County since 2017. However, his career began much earlier when he began working at the age of 10 to support his large family, especially after his father passed away in 1963. He is a 1967 graduate of Kirkwood High School, a 1969 graduate of Meramec Community College, and a 1971 graduate of University of Missouri St. Louis.  
Upon completing his education, Stream served as a U.S. Naval Officer from 1971 to 1975 and was assigned to the USS Fort Snelling (LSD-30). Upon his honorable discharge, he returned to Kirkwood and worked as a supervisor at a nearby cotton factory. In 1977, Stream began a 29-year career as a Department of Defense Budget and Program Manager for the Army Aviation and Logistics Commands. During this time, Stream also served on the Kirkwood School Board for 12 years, 2 years as President. Stream retired in early 2006 to run for Missouri State Representative and was elected four times, serving as the House Budget Committee Chair and Vice Chair for 6 years. 
Stream and his wife, Ellen, have been married for 48 years and have 4 children and 4 grandchildren. In the past several years, Stream has been presented with the Lifetime Achievement Award from the Kirkwood Chamber of Commerce. He was inducted into the Kirkwood High School Alumni Hall of Fame for his 50+ years of volunteer service to the school district and the community.
