Summary

The resolution would change the state constitution to state that only U.S. citizens who are at least 18 years old and reside in the voting precinct they wish to vote in may cast ballots, with limited exceptions for presidential elections and former‑residence voting. It targets all Kansas voters and would make the eligibility rules explicit in the constitution. The measure failed to advance and died in committee.
