Voters across the state received letters Tuesday with applications for mail-in ballots from a non-profit with a return address in Missouri.
Donna Maskus, Ellis County Clerk, said the letters from a national non-profit organization, the Center for Voter Information, are legitimate.

If voters have not already filled out their request for a mail-in ballot for the general election, they can fill out the form enclosed in the letter and send it to the Ellis County Clerk's Office in the postage paid envelope that is enclosed in the letter.

Maskus said her office was not involved in the letter campaign and did not pay the postage for the return envelopes.
If you have already requested a mail-in ballot for the general election, you do not need to do it again, she said.

Maskus said she had multiple calls about the letters on Tuesday, but confirmed with the Secretary of State's Office that the letters are legitimate.
