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.

Shall a special purpose retailers’ sales tax in the amount of three and one half tenths of one percent (0.35%) (e.g., $0.35 on a $100.00 purchase) be levied in the City of Abilene, Kansas to take effect July 1, 2025 or as soon thereafter as such tax may be levied by the Kansas Department of Revenue, with revenue from such tax used for the purpose of funding recreation facility improvements, to include multi-purpose fields, with the means and methods to accomplish said purpose to be determined in the sole discretion of the Governing Body of the City; and provided that such retailers’ sales tax shall expire on the date ten years after it is first levied, all pursuant to K.S.A. 12-187 et seq., as amended?

Note to Kansas's presidential electors: show up early to deal with parking, or you will get replaced. #ksleg

Wichita Eagle article titled "Elector Too Late to Cast Nixon Vote". Brief summary: Tony Mesa couldn't find parking, didn't get to the SOS office until 12:17, but electors have to cast their votes at noon, so he had been replaced.

It's results collection season! For the next couple months, the project will be to collect results, organize them in our database, and post them to the site. We're also building our precinct maps up from scratch to align with the voter registration file, which we'll keep updated monthly afterward.

A cool feature is that we also can map all of the statewide race breakdowns we already had on the site. If you want, say, the 2018 gubernatorial race by the current state house map, you can get it visualized!

We just launched a new section of the site: maps! We've got a collection of current districts and local governments up already, and we're working to build out our historic district map collection.
