Do you have a vote plan? Research shows that voters who make a plan to vote are more likely to follow through and make their voices heard. Take a moment today to consider things like where you’ll vote, what pen you’ll use (pro tip: any color is fine!), and what resources you’ll use to research your choices.

If your plan includes returning your ballot by mail, it’s best to get it to a mailbox by Friday, Aug. 1, to be sure it’s postmarked on time.

Prefer a drop box? There are more than 80 official ballot drop boxes around the county. You can find a list and map at kce.wiki/DropBox.
