Elections for the office of Kansas House of Representatives took place in 2020. The general election was held on November 3, 2020. A primary was scheduled for August 4, 2020. The filing deadline was June 1, 2020.

Republicans expanded their existing supermajority in the 2020 elections. All 125 House seats were up for election in 2020. Heading into the election, Republicans held an 84-41 majority. Republicans gained a net two seats in the state House in 2020, expanding their majority to 86-39. An 84-seat majority is required to override gubernatorial vetoes.

The Kansas House of Representatives was one of 86 state legislative chambers with elections in 2020. All 125 seats in the Kansas House of Representatives were up for election in 2020. There are 99 chambers throughout the country. In 2018, 87 out of 99 legislative chambers held elections.

Kansas' 2020 state legislative elections affected partisan control of redistricting following the 2020 census. In Kansas, the state legislature is responsible for drafting both congressional and state legislative district plans. District plans are subject to gubernatorial veto.

August 4 Republican primaries

On August 4, 28 Republican state legislative incumbents faced primary challenges, of whom 12 were defeated, seven in the Senate and five in the House. Local media sources like The Wichita Eagle, Shawnee Mission Post, and The Kansas City Star identified nine incumbents, whose primaries and defeats represented a longstanding, intra-party ideological divide in the state's legislature, which will be explored in this section.

According to The Kansas City Star's Michael Ryan, "A good number of conservatives absolutely washed over their more moderate state legislative opponents in Tuesday’s Republican primary election. In some cases, incumbents were carried off." Along those lines, The Wichita Eagle’s Jonathan Shorman wrote, “The influence of Kansas Republican moderates has waxed and waned. Gov. Sam Brownback [(R)] helped oust them in 2012. Voters then swept them back into office in 2016 to end his signature income tax cuts and stabilize the budget.” Shorman continued, “But with last week’s primary losses, their ranks have been depleted to levels not seen for years.”

In the state Senate races featuring the ideological divide, all of the incumbents who lost in primaries this year were first elected in 2016, the last time state Senate elections took place. Sens. John Skubal, Bruce Givens, Randall Hardy, and Edward Berger defeated Republican incumbents in primaries themselves in 2016.

• District 11: Kellie Warren defeated Sen. John Skubal, 64-36%

• District 14: Michael Fagg defeated Sen. Bruce Givens, 54-46%

• District 15: Virgil Peck, Jr. defeated Sen. Dan Goddard, 50.1-49.9%

• District 24: J.R. Claeys defeated Sen. Randall Hardy, 63-37%

• District 33: Alicia Straub defeated Sen. Mary Jo Taylor, 60-40%

• District 34: Mark Steffen defeated Sen. Edward Berger, 57.5%-42.5%

The state House last held elections in 2018. Of the three incumbents defeated below, Rep. Diana Dierks was first elected in 2012. Reps. Jan Kessinger and Jim Karleskint were both elected in 2016 after defeating Republican incumbents in their respective primaries.

• District 20: Jane Dirks defeated Rep. Jan Kessinger, 57-43%

• District 42: Lance Neelly defeated Rep. Jim Karleskint, 52-48%

• District 71: Steven Howe defeated Rep. Diana Dierks, 62-38%

Heading into the November elections, Kansas had a divided government. Republicans held supermajorities in both the Senate and the House. Democrats held the governorship following Gov. Laura Kelly's election in 2018. The next gubernatorial election was held on November 8, 2022.

No Right to Abortion in Constitution Amendment

Local media outlets identified Republican opposition to and the ultimate defeat of the No Right to Abortion in Constitution Amendment during the 2020 legislative session as a noteworthy issue in the Republican primaries featuring Sen. John Skubal and Rep. Jan Kessinger. If passed, the measure would have placed a legislatively referred constitutional amendment on the Aug. 4 ballot stating that there is no right to abortion or public funding for abortions in the Kansas Constitution.

A two-thirds vote of all members in each chamber of the Kansas State Legislature was required to refer the amendment to the ballot for voter consideration. In the Senate, that equaled 27 votes and, in the House, 84. Republicans held supermajorities in both the Senate and House with 29 and 84 members, respectively, equal or greater to the two-thirds threshold in both chambers.

On January 29, 2020, the Senate approved the amendment with a 28-12 vote, with Skubal joining all 11 Senate Democrats in opposition. The remaining 28 Republicans voted in favor. On February 7, 2020, the amendment's referral was rejected by an 80-43 vote, failing to meet the two-thirds threshold after Kessinger and three other Republicans joined 39 Democrats in opposition. The remaining 80 House Republicans supported the amendment with two Democrats abstaining.

Additional local commentary

The following quotes come from local reporters and commentators discussing the outcome of the Aug. 4 primaries:

“	I like conservatives’ chances much more than I did before Tuesday. It’s easier to overrun a feckless city government than it is to overwhelm millions of motivated voters at the polls. Was this a wave election Tuesday? It’s too soon to say. But it was at least a ripple. And that’s how waves get their start.	”
—Michael Ryan, The Kansas City Star

“	[Rep. Jan Kessinger and Sen. John Skubal] were the last of a group of [Johnson County] Republicans that leaned more moderately than their GOP colleagues from around the state. Rising from the post-Brownback era, most of them swept into office in 2016 and fought for increased funding for public education across the state. Most of those electoral gains, however, have now been wiped out between the 2018 midterms and this most recent election.	”
—Kaylie McLaughlin, Shawnee Mission Post

“	Moderates fell to conservatives in Republican legislative contests across the state. The consequences will play out over the next few years, possibly determining the outcome of debates over Medicaid expansion, abortion and Democratic Gov. Laura Kelly’s powers during the pandemic. ... Democratic gains could be crucial in limiting the power of conservative Republicans, especially if they can end the GOP supermajority in one or both chambers.	”
—Jonathan Shorman, The Wichita Eagle

“	Almost certainly, the Legislature will host more far-right Republicans, more Democrats, and fewer moderate Republicans. ... In addition, the 2020 elections will likely produce enough Democrat legislative seats to render the Legislature “veto-proof,” in that Governor Kelly’s fellow partisans will have more than a third of the seats in at least one chamber. This means that even conservative Republicans will have to negotiate with Kelly, given her veto power.	”
—Burdett Loomis, The Hutchinson News

Process to become a candidate

See also: Ballot access requirements for political candidates in Kansas

For party candidates

See statutes: Kansas Statutes, Chapter 25, Article 2, Section 5

A candidate seeking the nomination of a party qualified to participate in primary elections can access the primary ballot either by filing a nomination petition or paying a filing fee.

By filing a nomination petition

Signature requirements for nomination petitions for party candidates vary according to the office being sought. For offices elected on a statewide basis, signatures must equal at least 1 percent of the state's current voter registration total of the party whose nomination the candidate is seeking. For offices elected by district, signatures must equal at least 2 percent of the district's current voter registration total of the party whose nomination the candidate is seeking.

Nomination petitions for federal and state-level offices (including state legislative seats) must be submitted to the Kansas Secretary of State by noon on June 1, prior to the primary election. If June 1 falls on a holiday or weekend, petitions are due by noon on the next following business day.

By paying a filing fee

A candidate may forgo the petition process by submitting a declaration of candidacy and paying a filing fee. The filing fee varies according to the office being sought. For statewide and federal offices, the fee is equal to 1 percent of the office's annual salary. For state senate candidates, the fee is $75. For state representative candidates, the fee is $50.

The declaration and accompanying filing fee for federal and state-level offices (including state legislative seats) must be submitted to the Kansas Secretary of State by noon on June 1, prior to the primary election. If June 1 falls on a holiday or weekend, petitions are due by noon on the next following business day.

In addition to the statutory filing fee, a candidate for federal and state offices must pay a $20 administrative fee to the Kansas Secretary of State. A state-level candidate must also pay a registration fee to the Kansas Governmental Ethics Commission. For statewide executive offices, the fee is $480. For state legislative candidates, the fee is $35.

For independent candidates

See statutes: Kansas Statutes, Chapter 25, Article 3, Section 3

Independent candidates must petition for access to the general election ballot. Signature requirements vary according to the office being sought. For any statewide office, at least 5,000 signatures must be collected. For district-level offices (such as congressional or state legislative seats), signatures must equal at least 4 percent of the current total of qualified voters in the district as determined by the Kansas Secretary of State.

While an independent candidate is not liable for a statutory filing fee, he or she must still pay a $20 administrative fee to the Kansas Secretary of State. State-level candidates must also pay a registration fee to the Kansas Governmental Ethics Commission. For statewide executive offices, the fee is $480. For state legislative candidates, the fee is $35.

Independent nomination petitions for federal and state-level offices (including state legislative seats) must be submitted to the Kansas Secretary of State by noon on the Monday preceding the date of the primary election.

For write-in candidates

See statutes: Kansas Statutes, Chapter 25, Article 3, Section 3

In order to have their votes tallied, certain write-in candidates must submit affidavits of candidacy. If a write-in candidate is running for governor, an affidavit must be filed with the Kansas Secretary of State by noon on the second Monday preceding the general election. If a write-in candidate is seeking another statewide office (except United States Senator), an affidavit must be filed with the Kansas Secretary of State by noon on the second Monday preceding the election at which the write-in candidate seeks nomination or election. Write-in candidates for other federal and state offices are not required to file affidavits.

Voter information

How the primary works

A primary election is an election in which registered voters select a candidate that they believe should be a political party's candidate for elected office to run in the general election. They are also used to choose convention delegates and party leaders. Primaries are state-level and local-level elections that take place prior to a general election. Kansas utilizes a semi-closed primary process, in which previously unaffiliated voters can participate in the partisan primary of their choice (a voter who is already affiliated with a party can only vote in that party's primary).

For information about which offices are nominated via primary election, see this article.

Poll times

Unless otherwise set by the county, polls in Kansas open at 7:00 a.m. and close at 7:00 p.m. Central time (6:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. Mountain time). Counties are given the discretion to open polls as early as 6 a.m. and close polls as late as 8 p.m. Central time (5 a.m. to 7 p.m. Mountain time). Polls must be open for a minimum of 12 consecutive hours and may not close before 7 p.m. Central time (6 p.m. Mountain time). An individual who is in line at the time polls close must be allowed to vote.

Registration requirements

Check your voter registration status here.

To vote in Kansas, one must be a citizen of the United States and a resident of Kansas. In order to register, an individual must be least 18 years old before the next election. Voters must register at least 21 days prior to Election Day. Registration can be done by completing and returning an application, either in person or by mail. Registration may also be completed online.

On June 18, 2018, a federal judge struck down a Kansas law requiring citizens to present proof of citizenship when registering to vote. A federal appeals court subsequently affirmed that decision. For more information, see below.

Automatic registration

Kansas does not practice automatic voter registration.

Online registration

See also: Online voter registration

Kansas has implemented an online voter registration system. Residents can register to vote by visiting this website.

Same-day registration

Kansas does not allow same-day voter registration.

Residency requirements

To register to vote in Kansas, you must be a resident of the state. State law does not specify a length of time for which you must have been a resident to be eligible.

Verification of citizenship

See also: Laws permitting noncitizens to vote in the United States

Kansas does not require voters to provide proof of citizenship at the time of voter registration. An individual must attest that they are a U.S. citizen when registering to vote. According to the state's voter registration application, an applicant who provides false information "may be convicted and sentenced to up to 17 months in prison."

A Kansas state law that went into effect in 2013 required voters to provide proof of U.S. citizenship when registering to vote. However, the provision was challenged in court and on June 18, 2018, Judge Julie Robinson, of the United States District Court for the District of Kansas, struck down the proof of crequirement and ordered Secretary of State Kris Kobach (R) to stop enforcing the rule. On June 20, 2018, Kobach’s office advised county clerks to comply with Robinson’s order. Kobach appealed the decision to the United States Court of Appeals for the Tenth Circuit, which heard oral arguments on March 18, 2019. On April 29, 2020, a Tenth Circuit panel affirmed the district court's ruling.

All 49 states with voter registration systems require applicants to declare that they are U.S. citizens in order to register to vote in state and federal elections, under penalty of perjury or other punishment. As of November 2024, five states — Alabama, Arizona, Georgia, Kansas, and New Hampshire — had passed laws requiring verification of citizenship at the time of voter registration. However, only two of those states' laws were in effect, in Arizona and New Hampshire. In three states — California, Maryland, and Vermont — at least one local jurisdiction allowed noncitizens to vote in some local elections as of November 2024. Noncitizens registering to vote in those elections must complete a voter registration application provided by the local jurisdiction and are not eligible to register as state or federal voters.

Verifying your registration

The site Voter View, run by the Kansas Secretary of State office, allows residents to check their voter registration status online.

Voter ID requirements

Kansas requires voters to present photo identification while voting.

Voters can present the following forms of identification:

• Driver's license or nondriver's identification card issued by Kansas or by another state or district of the United States
• Concealed carry of handgun license issued by Kansas or a concealed carry of handgun or weapon license issued by another state or district of the United States
• United States passport
• Employee badge or identification document issued by a municipal, county, state, or federal government office
• Military identification document issued by the United States
• Student identification card issued by an accredited postsecondary institution of education in the state of Kansas
• Public assistance identification card issued by a municipal, county, state, or federal government office
• Identification card issued by an Indian tribe

A photo ID does not need to have an expiration date, but, if it does have an expiration date, it must not have expired at the time of voting. If the voter is over the age of 65, he or she can use an expired ID.

The following voters are exempt from providing photo ID:

• Military and overseas citizens who vote under the federal Uniformed and Overseas Citizens Absentee Voting Act (UOCAVA)
• Voters who vote in mail ballot elections, which are limited to local jurisdictions holding special question-submitted elections
• Voters who are accepted to the permanent advance voting list
• Any voter who objects to having his or her photo taken because of his or her religious beliefs. The voter can complete and sign the Declaration of Religious Objection form.

Voters who do not have a photo ID can obtain one for free through the Division of Vehicles, Kansas Department of Revenue. The voter must provide proof of identity and proof of residence. The voter must also sign an affidavit. Voters can access the Certification Requesting Fee Waiver for Nondriver Identification Card form at all driver's license offices, county election offices, and on the secretary of state's website. If a voter does not have the proper documents to obtain a nondriver ID card, he or she can obtain a Kansas birth certificate from the Kansas Office of Vital Statistics for free. Voters can also apply for a free State Voter Identification Document. Voters should contact the election division of the secretary of state's office at [email protected] or (800) 262-VOTE to apply.

Early voting

Kansas permits early voting. Learn more by visiting this website.

Early voting permits citizens to cast ballots in person at a polling place prior to an election. In states that permit no-excuse early voting, a voter does not have to provide an excuse for being unable to vote on Election Day. States that allow voters to cast no-excuse absentee/mail-in ballots in person are counted as no-excuse early voting states.

As of February 2024, 47 states and the District of Columbia permitted no-excuse early voting.

Absentee voting

All voters are eligible to vote absentee in Kansas. There are no special eligibility requirements for voting absentee. An absentee ballot application must be received by the Tuesday prior to the election. Kansas refers to absentee voting as "advance voting."
