Kansas GOP primary rules blocked by court ruling
Kansas faces a confusing August 3 primary as a district court blocks the GOP from opening its unaffiliated voter option. Unaffiliated voters may vote in the Democratic primary without affiliating, while Republican ballots require an affiliation form for those not registered with the party. First time voters must show ID under federal law, or use provisional ballots that must be resolved before polls close. County officials and poll workers face a steep learning curve to ensure a fair election.
