  1. Citizenship Voting Requirement AmendmentConstitutional amendment

    Only Citizens May Vote

    Kansas already requires voters to be U.S. citizens. This would make that rule more explicit in the state Constitution, like adding a clear “members only” sign to a door.

    Yes vote
    Changing the Kansas Constitution to say that only U.S. citizens who meet the age and residency rules may vote.
    No vote
    Keeping the current constitutional wording, which says qualified U.S. citizens may vote.
