Dear Editor:
The legislature is once again attempting to change our rights under the Kansas Constitution through a proposed amendment on the ballot this November 3. And once again, I am encouraging everyone to vote “no.”
The current section of the constitution that the legislative majority wants to rewrite is titled “Qualifications of electors.” Its first sentence states:
“Every citizen of the United States who has attained the age of eighteen years and who resides in the voting area in which he or she seeks to vote shall be deemed a qualified voter.”
