Vote!




Dear PSU Student:

The 1998 Higher Education Act requires all postsecondary institutions to make a good-faith effort to distribute voter registration forms to each degree-or certificate-seeking student who is enrolled in a higher education institution.  Pittsburg State has selected to provide this information to our students through your GUS access for continual availability.

If you are not already registered to vote, we encourage you to do so.  If you are a Kansas resident the following information will help you find the registration materials you need.  You may gain access to the Kansas Secretary of State website through GUS under Ballots, Survey and Voter Registration or directly at: http://www.sos.ks.gov/elections/elections_registration.html.  A printable voter registration form and appropriate mailing addresses are provided at this website for all Kansas residents.  Your “home” county may be based on your permanent address or based on your local address while attending PSU.

If you have a valid Kansas drivers license, the link above will also provide an online method to register to vote.

If you are an out-of-state student who prefers to vote through an absentee ballot through your home state, you will need to contact your state election office.  Kansas and Missouri registration forms are also available in the Student Government office in the PSU Student Center.

In Kansas voter registrations must be submitted by the 21st day prior to an election day and confirmation will be returned via mail from the county office.  We encourage you to consider your right to vote and register today!
