Kansas primary near as county awaits state funding
Douglas County Clerk Patty Jaimes prepares for Tuesday's Kansas primary while awaiting state funding. The county may pay about 48000 for polling places and vote counting if the Legislature does not appropriate money. She notes a possible late-year strain but has distributed ballots and booths and expects turnout to be lower than the 1980 level of 44 percent.
