Voter Registration

Make Your Vote Count

Your responsibilities as a voter are to carefully read and follow instructions, make your selections accurately, review your ballot, maintain ballot secrecy

and respect the rules of the polling place. By doing so, you can help ensure your vote is counted correctly and that the election process runs smoothly. 

VOTER REGISTRATION CARD

Ways to be a Responsible Voter

  • You must be a registered voter in Dickinson County.
  • Registration closes 21 days prior to each election (This does not include Election Day).
  • You may register at the Abilene City Office, Herington City Office, Dickinson County Health Department, or at the Dickinson County Election Office.
  • To register, you must be a United States citizen, a Kansas resident, and be at least 18 years of age

Law Regarding Party Affiliation Change

By law, from noon on June 2 through September 1, anyone affiliated with the Democratic, Republican,

or Libertarian party may not switch to another party or elect to become unaffiliated.

If you still wish to change your party affiliation after the August Primary Election, you will

need to resubmit another voter registration application after September 1.

The Kansas Legislature passed a law in 2014 which prohibits voters from switching parties

or disaffiliating from a party during the time from the candidate filing deadline through

the time when the primary election results are certified by the State Board of Canvassers.

K.S.A 25-3304
