Jackson County Voter Information and Resources

Election Day is November 6, 2018. The General Election ballot is a large, two-sided ballot including seven statewide questions and seven Jackson County questions.

The Jackson County Election Board (JCEB) suggests voters visit their website (https://www.jcebmo.org/ current-notices/) and go to “Voter Information Lookup” to find your custom sample ballot. Mark this sample ballot ahead of time and take it with you to reference on Election Day. A copy of the sample ballot is also provided on page 9 of this edition.

The Jackson County Election Board will send all registered voters a poll notification card one week prior to the election. This card will contain the name and address of your polling location.

In addition, you may look up your polling location at www.jcebmo.org/ current-notices/. Polling locations are open from 6:00 a.m. until 7:00 p.m. on Election Day. If you are in line to vote at 7 p.m. you will be allowed to vote.

If you will be out of town and unable to vote on Election Day you may request an absentee ballot. Absentee voters may visit the JCEB office at 215 N. Liberty, Independence to vote absentee any weekday from 8:30 a.m. until 5 p.m. and on Saturdays from 8:30 a.m. until 12:30 pm.
