Voter registration books will remain open two more weeks for the Nov. 6 general election.
Sherrie Riebel, Allen County clerk and election official, said registration may be done in her office at the county courthouse, in most city clerks’ offices, some libraries, the Social and Rehabilitation Services office and online through the Kansas secretary of state’s website, www.kssos.org.
Advance voting starts the day after registration books close on Oct. 17.
Riebel said ballots may be marked in her office or may be completed at home and then returned in person or by mail. All ballots must be in the clerk’s office no later than 7 p.m. on Election Day, Nov. 6.
Advance voting will close in Riebel’s office at noon Nov. 5.
She noted people voting in advance must show a photo identification, usually a driver’s license, to obtain or vote a ballot.
Ballots requested by phone, online or by mail will result in an application being sent to the voter, to be completed and returned to the clerk’s office to obtain a ballot.
For traditionalists, polls will be open on Election Day from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. A photo ID also must be shown then, as well.
