How to Register to Vote and/or Update Your Voter Registration
Register to vote online at ksvotes.org or visit your county election office. Or call your election office to find out how to register by mail (they can provide a voter registration form to mail in). If you have moved or changed your name, remember to update your registration. Print the Federal Voter Registration Application and mail it in to your local election office. See more details on Registering to Vote and Voting in Kansas.
Documentary proof of citizenship is NOT required when registering to vote, per the Federal District Court ruling on June 18, 2018, by Judge Julie Robinson declaring the Kansas Documentary Proof of Citizenship law violated the National Voter Registration Act and the U.S. Constitution.
Think you’re registered to vote?
If you are registered to vote, you should receive a postcard before each election telling you your polling place and other valuable election information. The League is aware that some registered voters are not receiving their card. If you did not receive a postcard: IMMEDIATELY verify your registration at your local elections office or the Kansas Secretary of State’s Office.
Get help!
Use this form to report a problem. The League of Women Voters of Kansas is interested in knowing about problems experienced by Kansas citizens. We also are available to assist individuals currently facing an issue in registering to vote or in the voting process itself.
