RETURN YOUR ADVANCE BY MAIL BALLOT

After your ballot arrives in the mail, please complete it carefully by following the provided instructions.

Under Kansas statute, the deadline to return your ballot is the close of the polls on Election Day. A district court judge in Douglas County has entered a temporary injunction altering that deadline. However, the Secretary of State, represented by the Attorney General, has filed a motion with the Kansas Appellate Courts to stay the decision so that the deadline remains the close of the polls on Election Day. Because of the legal uncertainty while the matter is pending on appeal, voters are urged to return their ballots by the close of the polls on Election Day. Doing so will ensure that their ballots will be counted.

There are three ways to return your ballot:

1.  A mail ballot may be returned in person to any Early Voting Center or Election Day Polling Site or to the Sedgwick County Election Office.

2.  A mail ballot can be placed in any of the 17 ballot drop boxes located within Sedgwick County. Find the drop box locations.

3.  A mail ballot may be returned by mail to the Sedgwick County Election Office, 3639 N Comotara St, Wichita, KS 67226
