HCS SB 962 -- ELECTION AUTHORITY VERIFICATION BOARDS This bill allows Kansas City to designate one of the election authorities wholly or partially within its boundaries as the verification board to certify the election results within the city. This designation must be done by city ordinance. The city will then be responsible for notifying all verification boards within the city of the designation. Within a specified time after an election, each verification board in Kansas City will certify its election results to the designated election authority verification board, which will announce the results of the election and certify the cumulative returns to the city.
