Election Guide

Each card links to a plain-English overview of the race or current-officeholder group, why it matters, and every candidate or public official currently researched for that page.

Federal Elections

The U.S. Senate and KS-01 races are the highest-profile contests for Hays-area voters in 2026.

State Elections

These statewide and legislative races decide who writes policy in Topeka and how Kansas government is run.

Ballot Measures

Statewide amendments can change the rules of the game for Kansas voters long after one election cycle ends.

2026 Local Ballot
