25-2701. Designation of areas and voting places; counting and canvass of ballots in certain precincts having less than 20 registered voters. (a) The county election officer shall determine the area to be served by each voting place at every election and shall make the same known to any public officers having need of such information in due time for appropriate publication notices or other matters required by law. Any precinct having less than 20 registered voters shall be included with an adjacent precinct or precincts in a single area to be served by a common voting place. The location of voting places shall be designated by the county election officer as provided by K.S.A. 25-2703 and amendments thereto. (b) For any election to which this section is applicable, wherever a city is located in two counties, the county election officer of the county in which the greater population of the city is located may designate a voting place located in a portion of the city in the other county to serve an area within that portion of the city within the county in which the greater population of the city is located. (c) At voting places serving two or more precincts, one or more of which have less than 20 registered voters, all ballots which are identical shall be deposited in the same ballot box or boxes and such votes shall be counted and canvassed in such a manner as to minimize the possibility of identifying the ballots cast by any voter. |
