Kansas Regulations § 7-38-1 National voter registration act; systematic list maintenance; national change of address filesVersion dated Oct. 30, 2024

(a) In April of each year, the chief state election official shall complete a check of the United States postal service national change of address files using the list of registered voters maintained in the state's central voter registration voter database.

(b) If the county election officer chooses to participate in the national change of address program instead of conducting mass or targeted mailings, the chief state election official shall send the name of each registered voter for whom records from the national change of address files indicate a change of address to the county election officer of the county where the voter is registered, as indicated on the central voter registration database.

(c) A county election officer shall send a confirmation mailing as prescribed by K.S.A. 25-2316c and amendments thereto to any registered voter for whom records from the national change of address files indicate a change of address. The confirmation mailing shall be sent when the county election officer receives the information described in subsection (b). If the records indicate a change of address within the county where the voter is registered, the county election officer shall change the voter's address to the new address before sending the confirmation mailing.
