Why Voting Matters
In Chase County, the people who show up to vote decide who represents everyone. The next election for Chase County voters is Kansas's primary election on August 1, 2028; local elections can come sooner, so check your local election office. Many Chase County jobs are in manufacturing and restaurants and hospitality, so decisions about manufacturing jobs and tourism and small businesses hit close to home.
In the 2024 presidential election, about 1,460 ballots were cast in Chase County, about the same as the 1,480 cast in 2020. With roughly 2,040 adults living in the county, that is around 71% of adult residents, above the statewide rate of about 58%.
That means roughly 583 adult residents did not cast a presidential ballot. Some are not eligible, but many are, and that is a lot of untapped power. If just one in 20 of them voted, Chase County would add about 29 voices, more than enough to decide a close local race.
Chase County is rural, with about 3.2 people per square mile across 773 square miles, so every vote carries extra weight in local races.
