2 BOARD REPORTS Voter Service Report Voter Service Committee will be meeting this month to plan out 2019 efforts to register and educate voters. We have applied for a grant again from LWVEF to continue our High School and Colleges Project.

Tuesday Topics While there is no December Tuesday Topics, please hold the following dates for 2019 Spring Tuesday Topics. Privatization of VA Medical Care Tuesday, Jan. 22, Noon-1 pm Bridging the Racial Divide Tuesday, Feb. 26, Noon-1pm The U.S. Census Tuesday, Mar. 26, Noon-1pm Sentencing Reform Tuesday, April 23, Noon-1pm Summary of November Tuesday Topic Dr. Russell Fox, Professor of Political Science of Friends University and frequent commentator on Kansas and Wichita politics, joined us at Tuesday Topics to speak about the recent midterm election. He discussed multiple aspects of the election. The 2018 midterm election had the highest turnout since This year 49.3% of registered voters turned out, in % voters turned out. The average turnout in midterm elections is around 40%. Dr. Fox pointed out that the makeup of voters in 1914 was very different from today. In 1914 the voters would have been exclusively white males. The recent election resulted in Democrats gaining 8.1% (39) seats in the US House of
3 Representatives. Gains like this are referred to as waves. In prior waves when Democrats gain, seats gained are in the range. In a Republican wave seats gained are usually in the range. Possible underlying causes were discussed. Data supports the disparity due to the rural-urban divide. In discussing urban and rural voting patterns, Dr. Fox showed the change in Republican support in the years 2012, 2014, 2016, and 2018 for three southern states. In the states of Florida, Texas, and Georgia support for Republican candidates in rural areas increased over time where support for Republicans in urban areas declined over the same timeframe. Dr. Fox discussed the James Thompson vs. Ron Estes 4 th Congressional District race. The two candidates faced off in two elections. In the special election Thompson lost by 7 percentage points. In the midterm his loss was by 20 points. Dr. Fox s analysis started by describing Thompson as not a typical Democratic candidate. Republicans have dominated the 4 th District since For the years 1994 to 2000 losses were in the range of 5-12 percentage points. In the years after 2001 the gap between Republicans and Democrats grew to averaging between 24 and 34 percentage points. Further analysis of the Thompson / Estes race shows that even within the 4 th District, there is a divide between rural and urban voters. Urban voters in Wichita tended to support Thompson, rural voters in outlying areas tended to support Estes. Turnout for this Tuesday Topics program was 63 people, one of the highest yet. Vote411 Results for 2018 Election It s official: our effort to get information to the voters was appreciated. In cities where we have a local League, our numbers are very good, and across the state, the word had gotten out to some extent. Overall, we had 36,991 users, which reflects 35,188 new users from previous attempts to use Vote411. There were total sessions of 48,384. This means that 13,196 voters signed in more than once. There were 2,059 users who printed out their ballots. The cost of $5,000 plus $1,000 for materials and man-hours of approximately 120 hours resulted in the cost per user of cents and approximately 5 minutes per user in manpower. If we converted manpower to dollars at $15 per hour, this would be $1,800, for a total cost to the project of $7,800, resulting in a per user cost of 21 cents. There have already been questions about what we are going to do for the 2020 election cycle, and the answer to that will be in planning for the future. This year we received two grants for a total of $6,000 to offset our costs. We will be sending out a survey to get input from the local Leagues that we will include in future planning. A huge thank you goes out to 2018 Blueprint Kansas (KSVotes.org) and our members for supporting this project. Carole A. Dixon, Voter Service Chair Help Wanted!
