Kansas AG Kobach Statement On Voter ID Victory: 'Justices Got It Right'

The latest AND EXTREMELY IMPORTANT WORD from one of the top elected officials in Kansas as the election approaches:

AG, SOS issue statements on major election win

TOPEKA - (May 31, 2024) - Today, the Kansas Supreme Court upheld the integrity of our elections. With the court win, Kansas will continue to have some of the safest and most secure elections in the country.

Kansas Secretary of State Scott Schwab and Kansas Attorney General Kris Kobach issued the following statements:

"The Justices got it right. This ruling allows us to preserve reasonable election security laws in Kansas. Signature verification has been the law for over a decade. This vital security measure is essential to our election system and the integrity of every vote," Schwab said.

"The Kansas Supreme Court's well-reasoned opinion confirmed that the legislature has the constitutional authority to establish proofs ensuring that voters are who they say they are. And that is exactly what Kansas's signature verification requirement is. This important protection of election security remains in place. The Court was also correct in rejecting the argument that limiting the number of ballots a person can deliver somehow restricts free speech. Kansas's law limiting the number of ballots a person delivers to ten is an important way of limiting ballot harvesting," Kobach said.
