Kendell Mason, County Clerk &

Thanks to Twitter, I’ve learned that Kansas ballots are narrowly written, at least in terms of presidential candidates, only listing 3. Many other U.S. states list 5-7 candidates or more. While a write-in is always possible, Kansas ballots appear to be designed to steer voters toward limited options. I hope you will inform yourselves of your choices, because Kansas ballots will not do so for you!
