Schwab, who is running for governor, said the agreement with Texas helps Kansas to maintain accurate voter rolls, which bolsters election integrity and administration. “We look forward to establishing agreements with other states in the future.”Schwab said the agreement is part of a growing trend among states. The agreement comes as some Republican secretaries of state, Schwab included, are resisting turning over sensitive voter information to the U.S. Department of Justice. A spokesperson for the Kansas Secretary of State’s office, Whitney Tempel, said Texas can’t share other states’ data with the federal government. The ACLU of Kansas is not convinced the agreement with Texas is much different than Crosscheck.
