Election night 2026: Salina311 to update results live as Kansas votes are counted
Salina311 will update this story live throughout the night as results come in from Saline County and across Kansas in Tuesday's general election.
Polls in Saline County are open from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. Tuesday, Nov. 3, according to the Saline County Election Office. Voters must cast their ballots at their assigned polling place. The county's "What's on my ballot?" sample ballot tool and polling place list are on the Saline County Election Office website.
Kansas law requires voters to show a photo ID when voting in person, according to the Kansas Secretary of State. Accepted forms include a driver's license or ID card issued by Kansas or another state, a U.S. passport, a U.S. military ID, a tribal ID card and a student ID from an accredited Kansas college or university. Voters 65 and older may use an expired photo ID. A full list is on the Secretary of State's photo ID page.
When and where results will be posted
The Secretary of State's election night results page goes live at 5 p.m. Tuesday, and results will begin appearing after polls close at 7 p.m., according to the Secretary of State's office. The first numbers typically reflect advance voting, with Election Day ballots reported through the rest of the evening.
All results posted Tuesday night are unofficial. Advance mail ballots postmarked by Nov. 3 and received by county election offices by Friday, Nov. 6, are eligible to be counted, so unofficial totals may increase between Nov. 4 and Nov. 6, the office said. Provisional ballots will not be counted until each county board of canvassers meets, which must happen by Nov. 16. The State Board of Canvassers must certify the election by Dec. 1.

Constitutional amendment and judicial retention
Kansas voters will decide one proposed constitutional amendment. According to the official explanatory statement, a yes vote "would clarify that only a person who is a citizen of the United States is eligible to vote in this state." A no vote "would make no change to the constitution of the state of Kansas, and the language concerning voter qualifications would remain the same." The full ballot language is on the Secretary of State's constitutional amendment page.
Voters will also decide whether to retain Kansas Supreme Court Chief Justice Eric S. Rosen and Justice Larkin E. Walsh, and Kansas Court of Appeals judges Lori Ann Bolton Fleming, Kim R. Schroeder, Amy Fellows Cline, Lesley Ann Isherwood and Jacy J. Hurst.
Ballots vary by address. Voters can check their own ballot through the Saline County Election Office or the Secretary of State's Elections Division at 800-262-8683.
