Online Voter Registration Application

You can register to vote for the first time or change your current registration information online.

New Kansas Voter ID Law (SAFE Act)

Beginning January 1, 2012, every voter must show photo ID when voting. A voter requesting a ballot by mail must either write his or her driver’s license number on the application or send a copy of a photo ID to get a ballot.

Valid Photographic Identification Documents

• Driver’s license or ID card issued by Kansas or by another state
• U.S. Passport
• Student ID card from an accredited POST-SECONDARY education institution in KANSAS
• U.S. military ID
• Employee badge or identification document issued by a government office
• Concealed carry of handgun license issued by Kansas or by another state
• Public assistance identification card issued by a government office

A voter age 65 or older may use an expired document.

Certain individuals are exempt from the ID requirements: permanent advance voters (voters with illnesses or disabilities), overseas military voters and their spouses and dependents, and voters with religious objections who sign declarations.
