These race previews show candidates we’re tracking now. A ZIP code shows your statewide and congressional races; a street address adds county and city contests. Local races are address-specific. This guide previews tracked contests, while the lookup tool narrows the list to a voter’s exact address. Tap any name to see the race, full candidate profiles, and everything else on your exact ballot. Kansas nominees were set by the August 4 primary, one per party, and meet on the November 3 ballot; all 125 state House seats are up, the state Senate is not, and county row officers (clerk, treasurer, register of deeds, county attorney, sheriff) are on the 2024/2028 cycle, so county pages carry commission seats, retention questions and local questions, per the Secretary of State.
