Statewide ballot measures (on every Kansas ballot)

1 certified statewide ballot measure on the November 3, 2026 Kansas general election ballot.

Citizenship Voting Requirement Amendment — Citizenship Voting Requirement Amendment

If approved, a " yes " vote supports amending the state constitution to state that only a citizen of the United States is eligible to vote.

Plain-English summary (Vote Book, from the official Yes/No wording): If approved, a " yes " vote supports amending the state constitution to state that only a citizen of the United States is eligible to vote. (Ballotpedia plain-language summary of official ballot measure)

Plain-language summary (AI-written; see official wording)

A Yes vote means: A " yes " vote supports amending the state constitution to state that only a citizen of the United States is eligible to vote. (Ballotpedia plain-language summary of official ballot measure)

A No vote means: A " no " vote opposes amending the state constitution to state that only a citizen of the United States is eligible to vote. (Ballotpedia plain-language summary of official ballot measure)

Supporters say: Supporters, including Becky Arps, director of research for Americans for Citizen Voting, argue: “The Kansas Constitution protects the rights of every citizen of the United States who has attained the age of eighteen years and who resides in the voting area. It does not prohibit a municipality from allowing a non-citizen to vote legally.”

Opponents say: Opponents, including Davis Hammet of Loud Light Civic Action, argue: “‬‭This amendment does nothing to strengthen our Constitution, it appears to do nothing at all legally, yet it‬ will cause confusion, inflame tensions, and distract from important conversations.”

Arguments: Ballotpedia (secondary source). Listed in equal length; Vote Book does not endorse either side.
