Voting is underway in Kansas and Missouri. Although it's an off-year for statewide or federal elections, there's still a lot of important races and questions on the local level.

Election Day is on Nov. 7, 2023. Polls are open from 6 a.m.-7 p.m. in Missouri and 7 a.m.-7 p.m. in Kansas.

No matter which state you're voting from, KCUR wants to make sure you have all the information you need before you fill out your ballot. Below you'll find the most important guides, resources and stories for the 2023 election — plus resources from our partners to help you stay informed.

All of the content below — and everything on our website — is available for free, always, no paywall or login needed. But if you want to support our journalism, you can become a member of KCUR here.

Voter tips

  • Before you head to the polls, make sure you’re registered to vote. Voter registration deadlines have passed in both states, but you should double check your voter status in Missouri and in Kansas.
  • Speaking of polling places, here’s where to find your voting location in Missouri and Kansas. Take note: Your polling place may have changed since the last time you voted.
  • Both Kansas and Missouri require photo ID to vote, and the accepted forms of identification differ in each state. If you don’t bring proper ID, you’ll have to cast a provisional ballot.
