A guide to Kansas elections: What to know about Bollier, Marshall and the US House races

Kansas and Missouri voters — those who haven’t already voted by mail — will face a long list of decisions Tuesday. Kansans will pick a new U.S. Senator and Missourians, a governor. All 12 of the states’ U.S. House seats are on the ballot, along with state lawmakers, county commissioners and prosecutors.

To help you out, we’ve put together this election guide for Kansas. A Missouri guide can be found here.

WHEN: Polls are open from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. in Kansas. But make sure to check your polling locations, because state law allows counties to extend their hours. If you’re in line at closing time, you’re entitled to vote.

WHERE: In Kansas, you can go to VoterView at the Kansas Secretary of State site to find your polling place.

WHAT: You’ll need government-issued ID no matter where you vote. Check here for details in Kansas. If you come to the polls without proper ID, the state has procedures for casting provisional ballots that will allow you time to produce a valid ID.
