Kansas and Missouri hold primaries Tuesday, offering glimpse of what November might be like at the polls
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — When voters in Missouri and Kansas go to the polls Tuesday, they’ll be doing more than selecting candidates for November. They’ll be at the center of a live experiment to help determine whether statewide elections can be held safely during a pandemic.
It will cap a monthslong effort by officials in both states to strike a balance that allows voters to safely cast their ballot while holding down lines and minimizing the potential for testy confrontations over masks.
Some Missourians voted in sparsely attended municipal elections in June. Kansans haven’t cast a ballot since the virus arrived this spring.
