Welcome To

Cheyenne County

THE HEART OF NORTHWEST KANSAS

WE ARE A FRONTIER RURAL COMMUNITY

The county is home to two main cities: Bird City with 447 residents and St. Francis with 1,329 citizens.  The balance of the county’s population is located in rural country homes, farms, or ranches.

We have a proud agriculture-based heritage with producers of wheat, corn, beef, poultry, pork, and other commodities.  Western Kansas is home to some of the most beautiful prairie in the state of Kansas with sunsets and sunrises that, in our humble opinion, just can’t be beat.  The county is abundant with wildlife including deer, pheasants, turkeys, and quail.  Archers and hunters enjoy our landscapes during hunting seasons.

GENERAL ELECTION BALLOT INFORMATION

By Mail: 

  • Voters are allowed to vote by mail prior to election day in the state of Kansas. To do so, you must complete an application for an advance ballot and include your driver’s license number or a copy of your photo identification.

Attention:

  • Under Kansas statute, the deadline to return your ballot is the close of the polls on Election Day. A district court in Douglas County entered a statewide injunction requiring ballots postmarked by election day to be counted if a ballot arrives by the last postal delivery on Friday after the election. The Kansas Court of Appeals Court denied the Secretary of State’s motion to stay the injunction for purposes of the Primary Election, but the Secretary of State filed a renewed motion with the Court of Appeals after the Primary asking it to stay the injunction for purposes of the General Election. The motion was denied.
