ELECTION PROTECTION

The ACLU of Kansas runs the Kansas-based statewide, nonpartisan voter assistance hotline 866-OUR-VOTE, which is administered by the Lawyers’ Committee for Civil Rights Under Law on behalf of the Election Protection Coalition.

We respond directly to calls to the hotline and have been successfully working with local election officials to make sure voting is as safe and secure as it should be for every Kansan. If you have any questions or issues with registering to vote, voting early or by mail, or voting on Election Day, notify the hotline so a trained volunteer can assist you or help investigate.

The Election Protection effort also includes nonpartisan poll observers on hand at voting locations throughout the state to observe and document any issues at the polls. You can sign up for the next training to become an Election Protection volunteer here.
