Help America Vote Act of 2002
(HAVA)
A First-Time Voter is a person who has registered but has never voted in Harper County and has not provided identification to the election office prior to the election.
First-Time Voters need to provide identification to a county election official to be eligible to receive a ballot. The name and address on the form used for identification must match the voter registration information given to the election office. Acceptable forms of ID are as follows:
Ø Current and valid driver’s license or non-driver’s ID card issued by the Kansas Division of Motor Vehicles.
Ø Current utility bill.
Ø Bank statement.
Ø Paycheck.
Ø Government check.
Ø Other government document showing correct name and current address.
Providing documentation before Election Day allows the election process to run more smoothly at the polling places. First-time voters who have not previously provided identification will be asked to do so at the polling place before voting.
To check if you are considered a “First-Time Voter”, please contact the Harper County Clerk’s Office at (620) 842-5555.
