We are working urgently to identify and contact affected voters, help them check their ballot status, answer their questions, and make sure they know how to cast a ballot that will count.
The additional effort and uncertainty created by this failure evoke the discriminatory barriers of our past. That is especially unacceptable in Wyandotte County, home to the highest concentration of Black and brown voters in Kansas.
No Kansan should have to overcome additional obstacles to vote because of their county or ZIP code.
This rapid voter-protection effort requires staff time, technology, phone calls, text messages, and direct outreach.
