Why Voting Matters

Every eligible adult in Marshall County, Kansas holds the same power on Election Day: one vote that counts exactly as much as anyone else's.

With manufacturing and retail among the county's biggest employers, issues like manufacturing jobs are decided by the officials voters choose.

That means roughly 2,740 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, Marshall County would add about 137 voices, more than enough to decide a close local race.
