While driving down an East Texas country road I spotted this scene. The autumn trees and the late afternoon sun made these golden bales of hay shine just a little bit more. Fortunately I had my camera with me. (c) James Q. Eddy Jr.

KCUR 89.3

Kansas voters went to the polls Aug. 4, 2026, for primary elections that will narrow the field for governor and other statewide offices, U.S. Senate and U.S. House races, and decide a critical constitutional amendment on the Kansas Supreme Court.

In-person polling places are open from at least 7 a.m. to 7 p.m., although some counties can stay open until 8 p.m.

Find your polling location here. If you are in line at the closing time, you still have a right to cast a ballot — stay in line!
