## Resource

Advance voting is underway in Douglas County with in-person options starting Wednesday — including locations in Eudora, Baldwin City, and Lecompton — running until noon Monday, August 3rd. Mail ballots have already been mailed. Primary Election Day is Tuesday, August 4th, with polls open 7 AM to 7 PM. Check dgcoks.gov for your polling place. Key races include a District One Commission seat with incumbent vs. newcomer, a District Four challenge, and federal races including Kansas’s 1st District and a crowded Senate race with 12 candidates. Also, a Douglas County judge temporarily blocked a state law restricting when advance ballots can be counted — a major legal development to watch.
