Third Party Registration Groups
Any person wishing to conduct a voter registration drive may obtain a supply of application forms and distribute them. Note, however, that voter registration agencies must transmit completed applications to the county election officer not later than five days after receiving them. A voter registration worker must also submit all voter registration applications you collect. The intentional failure to deliver a signed voter registration application as required by law is a felony. All applications sent via mail must be transmitted in envelopes to protect privacy[2].
There is, however, a suggestion in the Kansas Election Standards that persons wanting to conduct a voter registration drive receive training from the county election officer or the Secretary of State’s office on issues like how to instruct applicants on completing the voter registration form and the requirements for returning completed forms to the respective county election offices.
