TOPEKA, Kan. (AP) — The top elections official in Kansas is warning voters that text messages could provide incorrect information about where to vote. But the groups Voting Futures, Voto Latino and Black Voters Matter said incorrect information was the result of mistakes. Kansas Democrats began reporting getting the texts Sunday. Some texts sent people to places where they couldn’t vote in advance while other tests sent them to places where they could vote in advance but not on Election Day. Kansas Secretary of State Scott Schwab said voters should be on high alert for misinformation. Voto Latino and Black Voters Matter said the incorrect information came from a vendor handling the texts.
