The State Board of Canvassers will meet tomorrow afternoon, September 1st, to certify the 2022 Primary Election. The Stated Board is composed of Governor Laura Kelly, Kansas Secretary of State, Scott Schwab and Kansas Attorney General Derek Schmidt.
The State Canvassing Board is responsible for canvassing and certifying the results of all statewide elections, including State and Federal offices, State Constitutional Amendment Ballot questions and State Legislative and Judicial offices that overlap more than one country. In conducting the Canvass, the State Canvassing Board compiles and reviews the results as indicated by each of the 105 county Canvassing Reports. If necessary, based on the vote totals for an office, or upon the request of an apparent losing candidate, the State Canvassing Board orders a recount of the results for that office. They then sign the report to certify its correctness. The Board will meet at 3:30 that afternoon at Memorial Hall in Topeka.
