Pratt County outlines voting plan at Fairgrounds: 7 a.m. to 7 p.m., curbside voting and online results
Summary
County staff told commissioners the Fairgrounds will be the polling location for rural and city voters, open 7 a.m.–7 p.m.; curbside voting, seven electronic machines, and plans to post unofficial results online were described.
County staffers described logistics for an upcoming election at the Fairgrounds, telling commissioners the site will serve both rural and city voters and will be open from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. The presenter said curbside voting will be available on the left side of the building and that charitable or public transportation (VSP) will provide free rides with extended hours.
"We'll be there from 7AM to 7PM," the staff member said, and added the county planned to post unofficial results first on the elections webpage and then on Facebook. The presenter said seven electronic voting machines will be used, that the ballot is large and two‑sided, and that helpers will be available to assist voters with vision or accessibility needs.
Why it matters: the county framed the plan as one designed to manage a long ballot and provide access for voters who need curbside or assisted voting. Officials urged residents to check the sample ballot on Kansas VoterView and said unofficial results would be posted the night of the election.
