Happy Election Day! Early in-person voting is done, and the numbers from the SOS this morning should be nearly final (some counties are stragglers on reporting). We had 162k, which is well above Aug 24 (63k), but below the historically high Aug 22 (215k). ike-lab.com/dailyev_2608... #ksleg
We've posted data on the Friday advance voting report for Kansas. Yesterday, Rs passed Ds in ballots cast, which is late compared to recent primaries. Of those who voted in 2024, 15.6% of Ds have voted, compared to 8.7% of Republicans and 4.9% of unaffiliateds. #ksleg ike-lab.com/dailyev_2608...
Our advance voting tracker for the August 4th Kansas primary is slowly growing. All 105 counties have now reported data for ballots mailed, and we have our first in-person votes from yesterday. #ksleg ike-lab.com/dailyev_2608...
The advance voting period for Kansas's primary begins today! We've got the first report from the SOS on the number of requested mail ballots. As is usual, we don't have numbers from every county yet, but we've got 87/105, including the biggest ones in the state. ike-lab.com/dailyev_2608... #ksleg

We're late to posting this, but on June 9th, Morton County held a special election to recall their Sheriff, Thad Earls, and the measure passed 317-211. #ksleg
Unofficial results for our last special election from yesterday are from USD 404 (Riverton), which passed its bond question. #ksleg
A roundup of the unofficial election night results from Kansas's special election day! Still missing results from USD 404, although local news is reporting that the bond measure passed. #ksleg
Final election night results in for Hutchinson’s sales tax race. It looks like a tight win for yes. #ksleg
We’ve got some all-mail elections today, where ballots were due by noon and counting could begin immediately after. All three of Johnson County’s measures (Olathe and De Soto Schools and the city of Edgerton) look to have passed based on unofficial results. #ksleg

Good morning! Today is the first special election of the year in Kansas, a citizen-initiated measure in the city of Salina to repeal a ban on pit bulls. This is an all-mail election, so ballots are due by noon, and we'll likely have results in the afternoon. #ksleg
