We’ve got some all-mail elections today, where ballots were due by noon and counting could begin immediately after. All three of Johnson County’s measures (Olathe and De Soto Schools and the city of Edgerton) look to have passed based on unofficial results. #ksleg

Tomorrow is special election day in Kansas! We've got 20 school bond measures and 6 municipal sales tax measures on ballots around the state, including in the city of Wichita and for Olathe Public Schools. Full text for all the measures is up on our site: ike-lab.com/complete_ele... #ksleg

Good morning! Today is the first special election of the year in Kansas, a citizen-initiated measure in the city of Salina to repeal a ban on pit bulls. This is an all-mail election, so ballots are due by noon, and we'll likely have results in the afternoon. #ksleg

We’ve got the full text up of all of the special election ballot measures that will be held on March 3rd! ike-lab.com/complete_ele.... #ksleg

We have the complete guide to special election day in Kansas, which falls on March 3rd this year! 15 school districts will be holding bond elections and 6 cities will be holding sales tax elections. USD and city sizes, along with the amounts up for vote, are included. #ksleg

We do have one special election so far this year that isn't falling on March 3 (votes not relating to sales taxes and bonds are not required to be on the first Tuesday in March). Salina had a citizen-submitted petition to lift a ban on pit bulls, and the city commission decided to put it to a vote.

It's (special) election time! Last year, we passed a bill to have a single special election day each year instead of allowing them throughout the first half of the year. This year's falls on March 3, which means that mail ballots were sent yesterday, and some counties have begun early voting! #ksleg

We posted complete results from the August primary: ike-lab.com/complete_ele... #ksleg

ICYMI: Last week, we added 2024 presidential election data to the site. If you go into the election results page, you can view the results broken down by any of the geographies we have available (county, city, state leg districts, etc.). You can also map them! #ksleg

2024 presidential election breakdowns coming to the site soon!

We're behind on getting 2024 results mapped and broken down by various district types, but we're making progress! We've finished rebuilding our precinct maps from scratch, attempting to have geography for every possible ballot type in the state - about 7,200 total!

Good morning, it's primary day in (parts of) Kansas! Off-year elections here are nonpartisan, so primaries only happen when enough candidates file to need them. This year, out of the ~2000 races that are up in November, two dozen will narrow the field today. #ksleg #electionday

Big update today: along with the July voter file snapshot, we've posted complete 2024 primary results, nearly complete 2024 general results (just missing township results for a handful of counties), and complete 2025 special election results. That's more than 27,000 races! #ksleg

The last special election of the year that we’re aware of is today’s USD 367 (Osawatomie, Miami County) bond election. The election night results show it passing!

We're tracking four school bond measures today: USD 261 (Haysville), USD 263 (Mulvane), USD 436 (Caney Valley), and USD 499 (Galena)! #ksleg

Good morning! We're tracking four special elections today: a sales tax measure in Lenexa (Johnson Co), a measure to sell a park in Westwood (Johnson Co), and school bond elections for USD 226 (Meade) and USD 231 (Gardner Edgerton)! #ksleg

Ness County just posted information about another school bond election - USD 303 (Ness City) will be having one on May 6th! #ksleg

Johnson County posted a page this week for May 13th's bond election in USD 230 (Spring Hill): www.jocoelection.org/events-elect...

The April 1st special elections - the cities of Lenexa and Westwood, along with USD 231 (Gardner-Edgerton) - are being run entirely through mail ballots. Ballots were sent yesterday, so keep an eye out on the mail if you're eligible! #ksleg

Sedgwick County has posted the final results from the USD 259 bond vote from a couple weeks ago - it failed, falling less than 350 votes shy of a majority out of 28,000. They've also posted results by precinct, which we've mapped here. #ksleg

USD 235 (Uniontown, Bourbon County) had a special bond election on Tuesday, which looks to have passed - the unofficial results went 211 yes, 104 no. #ksleg

Special election calendar: 3/4: USD235 (Uniontown) 4/1: Lenexa, Westwood, USD231 (Gardner-Edgerton) 4/8: USD261 (Haysville), USD263 (Mulvane), USD436 (Caney Valley), USD499 (Galena) 4/15: USD203 (Piper) 4/22: USD419 (Canton-Galva) 5/6: USD402 (Augusta), USD244 (Burlington) 5/13: USD265 (Goddard)

We've got a couple of school bond elections for April 8th added to our calendar: USD 436 (Caney Valley) and USD 499 (Galena).

It looks like there is still one precinct only partially reporting, but the election night returns for the USD 259 bond question currently show a narrow loss.

Good morning! Today is the biggest special election currently on the calendar for the year, a bond question for USD 259 (Wichita)! #ksleg

Early in-person voting begins at the Election Office today for USD 259's bond issue. Satellite voting locations open later this week, with the final day of voting on Feb. 25. @kansasdotcom.bsky.social You can find more about the bond issue here: www.kansas.com/topics/in-th...

Of course, as soon as this was posted, we saw that USD 244 (Burlington) approved a school bond measure Monday night to go to the voters on May 6th.

We're in the process of collecting, organizing, and mapping the 2024 election results, and we'll get those posted as soon as possible. While that's happening, we're in the middle of special election season. These are the elections we've identified, this may expand as the spring progresses. #ksleg

Yesterday the city of Gardner in Johnson County had a special election to renew a 0.5% sales tax for city infrastructure. The unofficial results show an easy passage, 1,717-817. #ksleg

Another election from Tuesday - USD 111 (Doniphan West) had a $6.3M school bond vote, which looks to have failed by a large margin, 130-348.

The special election season in Kansas is underway! The calendar is starting to fill up with school bond and municipal sales tax questions - today is one from Abilene (Ike's hometown!), looking to approve a 0.35% sales tax for recreation facility improvements.
