KANSAS CITY, Mo. — The Kansas City Election Board (KCEB) is sharing new details about the special election that will determine whether Jackson County Executive Frank White Jr. is recalled from office.
The election will take place on Sept. 30.
Due to a shortened election cycle, KCEB said fewer polling locations will be open on election day. To expand access, additional no-excuse absentee voting locations will be available.
Approximately one week before the election, KCEB said voters will be mailed a notification card detailing their polling information. Voters can also confirm their details at kceb.org.
On election day, KCEB said voters can vote at any poll – including KCEB, by using a ballot marking device.
Those who wish to vote on a pre-printed paper ballot must do so at their assigned polling location on election day.
Voters who wish to vote absentee before election day, can do so with an excuse starting Aug. 19 at KCEB, 4407 Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Boulevard.
Voters without an excuse will be able to vote at KCEB and additional satellite locations starting Sept. 16. Additional details on no-excuse absentee voting, such as satellite locations, days and hours will be announced in the coming days, KCEB said.
You can view a sample ballot below.
Here are the important dates to know:
- Registration to vote deadline is Wednesday, Sept. 3.
- Absentee voting, with an excuse, begins on Tuesday, Aug. 19 at KCEB.
- Absentee voting, no excuse needed, begins Tuesday, Sept. 16 at KCEB and additional satellite locations. Days, hours and locations will be announced soon.
