Early voting off to busy start

Column: Barrett should suspend her nomination PAGE A4

Voting for the general election kicked off Wednesday with a flurry of activity. More than 90 voters cast ballots in person at the Allen County Courthouse.

County Clerk Sherrie Riebel and her staff mailed out another 1,000 advance ballots on Wednesday morning, with applications still accepted until Oct. 27.

That’s a brisk start to early voting, Riebel said.

Kansas allows multiple ways to vote. Voters can request advance or absentee ballots, or vote early in person, or at the polls on Nov. 3.

In the 2016 presidential election, the county received about 1,313 total advance and early in-person ballots, according to Register archives.

Poll worker Sharon Utley, far right, takes advantage of a break in the steady stream of voters to cast her own ballot. From left are poll workers Charmaine Sayles, Tom Sayles and Joyce Foster.

Utley was the 92nd Allen County voter at 2:45 p.m. on the first day of early, in-person voting.

REGISTER/VICKIE MOSS

Requests for advance ballots have already nearly matched that number and Riebel expects to exceed it significantly, likely prompted by the coro-

navirus to take advantage of advance voting options.

In-person voting, which is offered at the courthouse basement, is outpacing the

primary election in August, which also saw an increase in early voting because of the See VOTING | Page A5

COVID cases ‘ballooned’ at ACC

By TREVOR HOAG The Iola Register

Allen Community College has been hit hard with COVID-19 since the fall semester began.

“We ballooned up to a very large number,” said vice president Cynthia Jacobson, in reference to the total number of cases.

At one point, “our classrooms were getting pretty sparse,” she added, due to the number of individuals having to quarantine.

So far this semester, the college has had to navigate: — 52 positive coronavirus cases.

— 249 individuals either positive or in isolation.

— 197 individuals quarantined, with some requiring quarantine more than once.

At the highest point of reporting, Sept. 25, there were 29 concurrent positive cases.

As of Tuesday, however,

2nd District commercial spliced with fake message

By TIM CARPENTER Kansas Reflector

TOPEKA — Republican congressional candidate Jake LaTurner’s campaign put a commercial into wide circulation that contains murky video of Topeka Mayor Michelle De La Isla participating in a street protest with the voiceover falsely telling potential voters she worked to defund the capital city’s police department.

De Le Isla, the Democratic candidate in the 2nd District and the Topeka mayor since 2018, did take part in a peaceful march with Topeka Police Chief Bill Cochran and supporters of Black Lives Matter following the May 25 death of George Floyd at the hands of Minneapolis police.

She did take to the streets carrying a cardboard sign Vol. 122, No. 246 Iola, KS 75 Cents

decorated with a single word: JUSTICE. While pausing in downtown Topeka, she did kneel with the police chief and others.

Topeka has not, despite claims underlying LaTurner’s campaign commercial, defunded the police department at the behest of De La Isla or anyone else. In fact, the Topeka City Council with backing from De La Isla as a council member and mayor elevated the department’s budget since 2017 by $5 million to surpass the $40 million mark.

Political distortions contained in LaTurner’s commercial are accentuated by selective editing of remarks

by De La Isla during an August 18 news conference in which she pleaded with the public to avoid toxic rhetoric and asked the diverse com-

potential jurors. The plan was approved by the Kansas Supreme Court and includes all four counties in the district. Each county’s health officer also approved the plan.

Allen County’s courtroom could be used for jury trials, but the Bowlus offers more opportunities for social distancing, according to the plan.

City mulls reopening of community buildings

Iola’s community buildings, which have been largely closed off to the public since the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, may soon reopen.

Iola City Council members discussed reopening the buildings for private gatherings in time for the holiday season.

The city has kept the buildings closed in adherence to Gov. Laura Kelly’s recommendations of prohibiting mass gatherings of 45 people or more in places where social distancing cannot be See CITY | Page A5

Federal rural health panel offers little help for COVID-19

By ALLISON STEVENS Kansas Reflector

WASHINGTON — The pandemic is ripping through rural America, but the website for a federal advisory panel on rural health led by former Kansas Gov. Jeff Colyer is silent on COVID-19.

And Colyer, a Republican and Overland Park, Kansas, physician, continues to tout the use of hydroxychloroquine as a COVID-19 treatment despite warnings about its use. He also recently posted photos to his Twitter channel that show him standing close to two Missouri Republicans, Sen. Roy Blunt and Gov. Mike Parson, none of them wearing masks.

Colyer, campaigning in Topeka on a Kansas Republican bus tour earlier this month, says he’s been “very, very busy” leading the panel, despite its lack of public information about the health crisis.

Chartered in 1987, the National Advisory Committee on Rural Health and Human Services is supposed to give advice to the secretary of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services about the provision and financing of health care in rural areas. Its members are from outside HHS, and it is apparently seen as important enough to the Trump administration to have survived a purge last year of advisory panels across the federal government.

But even though the virus is spreading quick-

ly in rural areas, the committee hasn’t posted information on its website about the pandemic or its health effects in rural America. Public health experts say the government has failed to do enough overall in stemming the outbreak in the nation’s small towns and farm regions as winter nears and temperatures plummet, sending people indoors and in close contact.

Colyer’s committee has regularly published policy briefs over the past decade. But other materials, such as letters to the administration and recommendations and reports to the HHS secretary, have not been published to the site in years.

The committee website’s most recent letter to the administration dates to 2018. Its latest recommendations are from 2014, and its most recent report to the secretary was released in 2011.

The committee held its second meeting of the year nearly three months ago but hasn’t posted information about it. And its most recent policy briefs — published in May — address pre-planned topics of maternal mortality and HIV prevention and treatment in rural America.

According to its website, the committee selects one or more topics to explore every year and produces a report with recommendations for the secretary. Committee members also send letters to the secre-

tary and are authorized to produce white papers on other issues.

A charter document describes committee reports as optional and says the committee may meet up to three times a year, in person or on a webcast. Its annual budget is about $325,000, of which an estimated $189,000 goes to compensation and travel expenses for members and $137,000 goes to staff support.

The committee currently has 21 members, according to its website, but only 14 people, including Colyer, are listed as members — and the committee is in the process of adding members. The charter says the committee must have between 15 and 21 members, and the committee’s website says its size was expanded to 21 in 2002.

Colyer is the panel’s fifth chair and its second (after former U.S. Sen. Nancy Kassebaum Baker) from Kansas. He was appointed in February, about a year after his gubernatorial stint ended.

He has touted hydroxychloroquine throughout the pandemic despite warnings about its use for COVID-19.

In June, the Food and Drug Administration revoked emergency use authorization for the anti-malarial drug and later cited safety concerns, including serious heart rhythm problems, blood and lymph system disorders, kidney injuries and liver problems and failure.

Former Gov. Jeff Colyer says during a Kansas GOP bus tour stop on Oct. 6 in Topeka that he has been “very, very busy” leading the National Advisory Committee on Rural Health and Human Services. (Sherman Smith/Kansas Reflector) In addition to hydroxychloroquine, Colyer has touted other therapies like convalescent plasma, which President Donald Trump falsely claimed reduces mortality rates by 35%, according to FactCheck.org.

The FDA has issued an emergency use authorization for convalescent plasma but hasn’t approved any drugs or therapies to prevent or treat COVID-19.

Colyer did not respond to requests for comment, though he cited his work on the committee on the GOP bus tour.

“We had our first meeting at this obscure place — I’m sure you’ve never heard of it — called the CDC,” he told the audience, referring to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in Atlanta. “And

from that meeting onward, we’ve been very, very busy.”

Kari Bruffett, a committee member who serves as vice president for policy at the Kansas Health Institute, said the committee has remained active in recent months.

The pandemic has disrupted some activities, such as in-person meetings and site visits, she said. But the committee met virtually in July to discuss its mission, vision and values and talked about producing a report about key issues facing rural Americans during the pandemic, she said.

Committee staff have since solicited feedback on those issues from committee members and are compiling information, she said.

“I know that they’re

working on that document now,” Bruffett said.

A federal official, speaking on background, confirmed that committee staff are working on the paper and hope to publish “strategic visioning” materials from July’s meeting as soon as next week.

The official also said the committee is planning a virtual meeting this spring but that the dates have not been set.

Alan Morgan, CEO of the National Rural Health Association in Washington, D.C., said informal conversations about the pandemic in rural America are also taking place. He added that he has urged Colyer in recent weeks to take a “proactive leadership approach” in response to current events.

Wichita State names Muma interim president

By STEPHAN BISAHA Kansas News Service

The Kansas Board of Regents selected Wichita State University provost Rick Muma as the university’s interim president.

Wichita State needed an interim president after former President Jay Golden resigned unexpectedly in late September.

Since then, Muma has been the school’s acting president.

Muma spent more than 30 years as a professor and physician’s assistant in internal medicine and infectious diseases. In 2018, he becamse the university’s provost.

Previously, Muma

had served as chair of the departments of Public Health Sciences and Physician Assistant. Before coming to Wichita State, Muma chaired Saint Louis University’s Department of PA Education.

The board will eventually start the search process for a permanent president. The Regents have yet to commit to what that process will look like or how transparent it will be. Students criticized the closed door search that selected Golden in 2019.

The Regents picked Golden as Wichita State’s new president in October 2019. Golden held the position

for less than a year before resigning. Neither the university, the Regents or Golden have given a reason for the resignation.

In June, Golden angered some university donors and alumni after he removed Ivanka Trump’s remarks from the keynote position at WSU Tech’s virtual graduation.

The university made the recorded speech available for students and family, but some donors called for Golden’s resignation.

The Regents did not take action against Golden over the summer, and Regent Jon Rolph said Golden’s recent resignation was unrelated to that

controversy.

Rolph said the Regents could not comment further about the reason for the resignation because it is a personnel matter.

ously in quarantine.

Since the beginning of the school year, 18 employees have had to either quarantine or remain in isolation, though only three tested positive.

According to Jacobson, the vast majority of virus transmissions seem to have occurred in residence hall settings rather than in classrooms.

She also said that contact tracing efforts had seemed to be quite successful, and that safety and cleaning protocols being used in classrooms were working well.

That said, she described herself as “getting nervous” when the college started running out of isolation facilities, so was of course relieved when numbers started to drop.

At one point, ACC considered shifting back to a fully online model like last spring, but have not taken this step although they are prepared to do so — a preparedness which

ACC coronavirus situation: • 52 positive coronavirus cases.

• 249 individuals either positive or in isolation.

• 197 individuals quarantined, with some requiring quarantine more than once.

• At the highest point of reporting, Sept.

25, there were 29 concurrent positive cases. president John Masterson said gives him “great comfort.”

One decision that has been made, however, was to not have students return to campus following Thanksgiving break.

Thankfully, despite the spike in positive cases, no one at ACC has become so seriously ill due to COVID-19 that they required hospitalization.

IN OTHER news, despite a relatively small decline in enrollment, the campus itself is still at 91% housing capacity.

ACC sports teams are currently preparing for their spring seasons.

Cross Country was the

only team whose regular fall season went forward as usual.

Teams are also slated to assist the local Rotary Club with its recycling efforts.

Residence hall olympics and numerous other events had to be canceled due to coronavirus.

The college has received significant funds from the federal government’s SPARK program as part of the CARES Act. Some items the funding will be spent on include: isolation housing for students, new laptops for working remotely, HVAC improvements and more.

ACC is also working with Thrive Allen

County toward the goal of building a trail around the campus.

In connection with accreditation and assessment, the college is developing methods for evaluating student work that aren’t wholly connected with grades and scores.

An audit has also recently taken place to ensure that available materials in the bookstore carefully match current course offerings.

The search for a biology instructor is underway, though few applicants have applied thus far, likely due to COVID-19.

One new course offering of note is online French, which should be available soon.

With the future of ACC’s Burlingame campus still up in the air, a number of meetings are scheduled regarding how to move forward, and to evaluate whether and for how long the college should extend its lease on the satellite campus building.

ence, which was attended by Topeka’s police chief and city manager.

At this gathering with reporters, her campaign said, the mayor never indicated she endorsed a plan to defund Topeka law enforcement. Her remarks about what Topeka had been doing was related to the city’s participation since June 2018 in a U.S. Department of Justice program called Strengthening Police and Community Partnerships. It engages local law enforcement professionals and community leaders in dialogue to identify issues and solve problems collectively.

De La Isla also referenced at the news conference a July article in the Topeka Capital-Journal that fueled confusion about whether the city might limit funding to the police.

“It’s often way too easy to choose a side,” De La Isla told reporters. “I ask all of you not to feed into the division and please do not continue sharing misinformation. We do this by coming together. There is no one saying we will shut down our police department.”

lenges.”

The LaTurner campaign declined to comment Monday on the commercial released this month into four media markets serving the 25-county district extending from Nebraska to Oklahoma.

In August, LaTurner campaign spokeswoman Kara Zeyer told the Kansas Reflector that De La Isla had marched in support of the controversial movement to “defund the police.”

The attack ad from LaTurner, who is the Kansas state treasurer, opened with a statement by LaTurner that he officially approved the message. The voiceover then claimed De La Isla “doesn’t just talk about defunding the police, she does it.”

LaTurner’s commercial described De La Isla as a “radical” and showed her walking in a crowded street with protesters. The ad pivoted to a one of De La Isla’s news conferences in Topeka in which she spoke about the harm of racial discrimination and erosion of public trust as well as her appreciation for law enforcement’s effort to keep people safe.

The part of the ad drawing upon the words of De La Isla but spliced together to make a misleading connection between Topeka and police budget cuts, says: “Defunding the police … what it means is what the city of Topeka has already been doing.”

Condensing of her remarks and the splicing of video became more evident after repeated watching of the commercial. De La Isla’s campaign provided audio and video of the 24-minute news confer-

~ Journalism that makes a difference

Life experiences make Michelle De La Isla best candidate for Congress As mayor of Topeka, Michelle De La Isla has worked to not only increase the city’s police department budget but also to strengthen relationships between law enforcement officers and the public they serve.

De La Isla is running as a Democrat for the 2nd Congressional District against Republican Jake LaTurner, state treasurer.

A LaTurner campaign ad currently airing states De La Isla has defunded the Topeka Police Department.

The race is tighter than expected, which is perhaps why the LaTurner campaign has resorted to falsehoods.

The TV ad depicts De La Isla participating in a peaceful demonstration this summer where she is holding a piece of cardboard on which is written “Justice.” By her side is Topeka Police Chief Bill Cochran. The two are walking in support of Black Lives Matter.

But that’s not what the ad says. Instead, the voiceover characterizes the Topeka mayor as an anti-law enforcement “radical.”

The truth is that since 2017, the Topeka Police Department’s budget has increased $5 million, now surpassing $40 million.

De La Isla has served on the Topeka City Council since 2013, and was elected mayor in 2018. Since June 2018, the city has been participating in a program called Strengthening Police and Community Partnerships whose goal is to identify problems and solve them together.

Now that’s radical.

When asked for a response about their ad by Kansas Reflector reporter Tim Carpenter, the LaTurner campaign declined to comment Monday.

When De La Isla was prompted for a reaction, she took the high road, saying, “I ask all of you not to feed into the division and please do not continue sharing misinformation.

We do this by coming together. There is no one saying we will shut down our police department.”

LATURNER, age 32, is

the better known of the two. He has been in elective politics since he was 24 and has known little else.

In an interview this summer with the Register he spoke against the Affordable Care Act, against the expansion of Medicaid and for building the wall along the Mexico border.

THE TOPEKA mayor breaks most political molds, including refraining from campaign mudslinging.

She’s Latina. A single mother.

She’s experienced homelessness.

Survived cancer. Battled Michelle c r i p p l i n g De La Isala medical debt. And after eight long years interrupted by “life,” she graduated from Wichita State University at the age of 25 with a degree in molecular biology.

After college, she again rejected expectations by taking a position with Upward Bound, a program that helps students from low-income families prepare for college.

Her career since then has been nothing short of meteoric, including leadership stints with Topeka’s Habitat for Humanity and House and Credit Counseling and most recently as diversity coordinator at Evergy, the mega-utility formed from the merger of Westar Energy and Great Plains Energy.

And while those hard times may be in the past, they’re never out of mind.

In a visit to Iola this summer De La Isla, now age 43, said to the crowd, “When I see all of you and I see your challenges, I don’t say, ‘Oh, there’s people who are struggling.’ I see people who are waking up every day trying to do their best.

And the people who are doing that happen to be Republicans and Democrats.”

HER LIFE experiences, courage and compassion are what make Michelle De La Isla a wonderful candidate for Congress.

Why Barrett should suspend her nomination

By JOHN DUFFY The Chicago Tribune

For Amy Coney Barrett of the University of Notre Dame, where she and I are both professors, her nomination to the U.S. Supreme Court represents the crowning achievement of her legal career.

Widely regarded as a conservative in the mold of her mentor, the late Justice Antonin Scalia, Barrett has been praised as a brilliant scholar, a beloved teacher and a devoted mother. While Democrats are alarmed by the direction Barrett might take the court, there appears to be little they can do to stop it. Given the Republican majority in the Senate, Barrett’s confirmation as the next justice seems all but assured.

That is why it is vital that my Notre Dame colleague issue a public statement calling for an immediate halt to her nomination until after the November presidential election.

There are three reasons Barrett should take this unprecedented step.

First, voting for the next president is already underway. According to the United States Election Project, more than 7 million people have cast their ballots, and millions more are likely to vote before Election Day. The rushed nature of Barrett’s nomination, an exercise of raw power politics by Senate Majority Leader Mitch Mc-

A look back in t me.

60 Years Ago October 1960

Allen County had fewer farms in 1959 than in 1954 but they were larger in size and represented a substantially larger investment. This is revealed in the preliminary report of the 1959 agricultural census which was taken last fall. It lists 1,283 farms with a total land area of 302,690 acres.

The average size of the farms is 235.9 acres and the average value is $22,919, including the land and improvements. Similar figures for 1954 were 1,499 farms, averaging 202.9 acres in size with an average value of $14,181. ***** H.W. Doty, president of Foodtown Super Markets, Inc., announced today that his

firm has leased the building at 114 E. Madison which was vacated Saturday by the Kroger Company. The company will open a new store in the building Thursday. The Foodtown Company was formed in 1937 and its first store was opened in Chanute that year.

It now operates 23 markets in southeast Kansas, southwest Missouri and northeast Oklahoma. Neil McCracken will be the grocery manager in Iola and John Phillips will be in charge of the meat department. The building is owned

by B.W. Curtis, well-known retired furniture dealer who now lives in El Cajon, Calif. ***** The Iola Chamber of Commerce will give its annual Ladies Night dinner and pro-

gram at 6:30 p.m. Wednesday in the Hotel Kelley. The speaker will be Dr. Wilbur Schaeffer, Los Alamos, N.M. who is known as an authority on atomic energy and the space satellite program. ***** Carmel C. Vaughn, president of the Vonolite corporation, reported this morning that his company had purchased the Micolite building on East Street and will soon begin the manufacture of a new fireproofing material.

Vaughn says his product has been extensively tested and approved as an insulating, sound deadening, fire proof material which can be applied easily to either existing or new structures. He said he expects to hire 10 or 12 men.

Connell, will effectively deprive the American people of a voice in selecting the next Supreme Court justice.

Judge Barrett is not responsible for the anti-democratic machinations driving her nomination. Nor is she complicit in the hypocrisy of fast-tracking her nomination weeks before a presidential election when the Republican Senate refused to grant Merrick Garland so much as a hearing a full year before the last election. Yet Barrett can refuse to be party to such maneuvers. She can honor the democratic process by insisting the hearings be put on hold until after the voters have made their choice.

Second, the late Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg’s dying wish was that her seat on the court remain open until a new president was installed.

At her nomination ceremony at the White House, Barrett praised Justice Ginsburg as “a woman of enormous talent and consequence, whose life of public service serves as an example to us all.” Barrett’s nomination just days after Ginsburg’s death was unseemly and a repudiation of her legacy. Barrett can repair the injury to Ginsburg’s memory by calling for a pause in the nomination until the next president is seated.

Finally, Barrett’s nomination comes at a treacherous moment in the United States.

Our politics are consumed by polarization, mistrust and fevered conspiracy the-

ories. Our country is shaken by pandemic and economic suffering. There is violence in the streets of American cities. The politics of this nomination, as Barrett surely understands, will further inflame our civic wounds, undermine confidence in the court and deepen the divide among ordinary citizens, especially if the judge is seated by a Republican Senate weeks before the election of a Democratic president and Congress.

TO ASK Barrett to halt her nomination is asking a lot.

Should former Vice President Joe Biden be elected, Barrett’s seat on the court will almost certainly be lost. The honor of a lifetime would be gone. That would be painful, surely. Yet there is much Barrett stands to gain in risking her seat.

In calling for her nomination to be delayed, Barrett would earn the respect of fair-minded people everywhere. She would provide a model of civic selflessness.

And she might well inspire Americans of different beliefs toward a renewed commitment to the common good.

I congratulate my Notre Dame colleague, Judge Amy Coney Barrett, on her singular honor. And I hope she will insist that her nomination be halted until after the election.

Letter to the editor Dear editor,

Recently I’ve had a “revelation” that has blessed me and I believe I’m led by the Lord to share it.

As a victim of molestation as a 6-year-old, date rape as a young adult, verbal abuse by “loved ones,” and even now some disrespect as an 80-year-old, I know I’m not alone. To the multitudes “out there,” this message is for you.

Yes, we have to deal with ignorant people who are judgmental because each of us deals with our healing process in our own way and in our own time (not

theirs.) I reached a point long ago where I wished the abusers no harm, and then later got all the toxic people out of my life. The next step is to pray for those who abused you. The final step I’ve not gotten to yet — love your enemies.

Instead of focusing on what they did to us, let’s focus on what Christ did for us. Just an idea when we are hurting and feeling a bit depressed regardless of where we are in the process.

Sharon McCauley, Moran, Kan.

regulated.

Councilwoman Kim Peterson said she was asked by a family about the possibility of using a community building.

Interim City Administrator Corey Schinstock said he was comfortable with having the buildings reopened, with the caveat the city would be unable to regulate the crowd sizes once the buildings are rented.

He suggested having renters sign a waiver or statement assuming responsibility for maintaining crowd sizes or social distancing rules when using the facility.

Mayor Jon Wells said that if the buildings are rented, there likely still will be restrictions, such as allowing only one such rental per weekend, to allow city crews time to properly clean and sanitize the

area afterward.

Council members asked Schinstock to bring the issue back for further discussion.

WITH THE Nov. 3 general election less than three weeks away, Schinstock reminded the Council of the city’s rules regulating placement of candidate signs.

The signs cannot be on public rights of way, larger than 6 square feet or illuminated.

The rules are not in place to discourage citizens from publicly supporting candidates or issues, Schinstock noted, but rather to prevent obstructed views for motorists or block access to sidewalks.

“A good rule of thumb is to keep them inside the sidewalks or 10 feet back from the street,” Schinstock said.

THE SEARCH continues for a new administrator, with eight hopefuls being pegged for further consideration.

Schinstock said he hoped to have the eight candidates available to meet with the Council Oct. 30 so they can continue interviews.

COUNCIL members also: — Approved, 6-0, several measures related to application of a Community Development Block Grant, that if approved, will go toward purchase of a new fire truck.

jury trials scheduled in the next month.

The Bowlus offers a large room for jurors to gather in a socially distanced way, and the main stage area allows potential jurors to sit with space between them. The jury selection process and trial will be conducted on the main stage. The art room will be used for a jury room and deliberations.

The Bowlus has several rooms where witnesses and others can wait.

The public can watch from seats in the auditorium, utilizing social distancing measures.

Masks must be worn unless the court grants an exception.

Extra safety precautions will be taken to protect jurors,

such as providing only pre-packaged meals and limiting amenities including bottled water and notebooks.

Podiums have been removed unless plexiglass can be added. If not, attorneys will ask questions from their respective tables.

Courthouse maintenance, security and staff will conduct deep cleaning of the alternate facilities when used for proceedings.

Hand sanitizer will be available throughout the facilities.

In Wilson County, jury trials will be moved to the Neodesha Civic Center. All trials in Neosho County will be moved to the Erie courtroom. Woodson County does not have alternate space available, so all trials will continue at the courtroom.

Voting: Still time to request advance ballots and vote early Continued from A1

pandemic.

Some voters may be wary of sending ballots through the mail system, amid reports of delays. Riebel encourages those who are concerned to mail their applications and ballots as quickly as possible, to ensure plenty of time for delivery.

Riebel said she believes complaints about the postal service are unfounded.

“Our Postal Service has been awesome to work with. I feel bad they are getting a bad rap,” Riebel said. “The Iola Post Office has gone above and beyond to make sure things are right.”

For those who are still concerned about timely delivery of advance ballots, two drop boxes also are available. They are located at the Allen County Ambulance Station at 808 Osage St. in Humboldt, and on the north side of the courthouse.

The Humboldt drop box will open today, but the courthouse location will not be open until Monday because of the Farm-City Days activity in the area.

You can also deliver advance ballots to the clerk’s office or the polling station in the courthouse basement, during business hours.

Early, in-person voting

To vote ahead of the

election, go to the basement of the Allen County Courthouse at 1 N. Washington Ave. You’ll need to show your photo ID, such as a driver’s license, and abide by coronavirus safety precautions. Poll workers will use plexiglass shields, provide voters with stylus pens and sanitizer, and will require social distancing.

Early voting is available from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday through Friday until Oct. 23. It will be available from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. Oct. 26 through Oct. 30, the last week before the election, and from 8 a.m. to noon Nov. 2.

Advance or absentee ballots

Those who want to avoid lines or the risk of possible exposure to infection, and those residents who will be out of the county during the election season (such as college students living in a dorm) can request an advance or absentee ballot.

The process is simple.

Go to allencounty.org, click on “county clerk” under the departments tab and find the link for “Advance Application.”

Fill out the form and sign it. You can mail it to the clerk’s office at 1 N. Washington Ave, Iola KS 6679, or deliver it to the clerk’s office. You can also scan the completed application and email it coclerk@allen-

county.org. The application must be received by the clerk’s office by Oct. 27.

After the application is processed, the clerk’s office will mail a ballot to voters. Complete the ballot, making sure to read and follow all instructions. Then, drop it in the mail, or deliver it to one of the county’s two drop boxes, or deliver it to the clerk’s office at the courthouse.

Ballots must be postmarked by Nov. 3 to be counted.

At the polls

The polls will be open from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m.

Tuesday, Nov. 3. Be prepared to practice social distancing and abide by coronavirus safety precautions. Also, be prepared to show a photo ID, such as a driver’s license.

Allen County has four polling locations: North Community Building, 505 N. Buckeye; Humboldt Methodist Church, 806 N. Ninth St.; Moran Senior/Community Center, 407 N. Cedar; and Gas Community Center, 624 W. Pine.

Provisional ballots

For various reasons, some ballots may be rejected.

That’s very unusual, Riebel said, and every effort is made to ensure votes will be counted.

If there is any doubt to a voter’s qualifications, they’ll be issued a

provisional ballot.

A provisional ballot will be issued if a voter changed their name or address and failed to re-register. It could also be issued if there is a question as to the voter’s citizenship, age, registration or residence, if you have a felony conviction, if you failed to provide a photo ID or have already voted during that particular election.

Those who are issued a provisional ballot will also be given a voter registration card to fill out and ensure proper registration for the next

election.

Provisional ballots are not counted during the election and are set aside to be examined during the official canvass.

After the election, county commissioners will meet with Riebel to study the circumstances of the provisional ballot and determine if it should be counted.

The state provides specific guidelines as to which ballots should be counted.

Most of the time, those ballots qualify to be counted, Riebel said.

For example, in the

August primary, Allen County considered 40 provisional ballots and only eight were rejected.

Track your ballot

The county’s website allows voters to easily find information about their registration status and status of advance ballot requests as well as voting history.

Just go to allencounty.org and click the large red link “Check Election Status.” Enter your name and birth date, then hit the “enter” button to find the information.

MLB: Playoffs

Chiefs: What went wrong — and right — in defeat?

Getting defensive First loss in nearly a year raises questions for KC

By DAVE SKRETTA The Associated Press

KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) — The Kansas City Chiefs should have felt good about the state of their defense heading into Sunday’s game against the Las Vegas Raiders. They had held every opponent to 20 points or fewer and were getting back defensive tackle Chris Jones from an injury and cornerback Bashaud Breeland from a suspension.

They proceeded to give up 490 yards of total offense, allowed Derek Carr to throw three touchdowns passes — including a 72-yarder and a 59-yarder — and couldn’t stop the Raiders and force a punt in the final minutes of a 40-32 defeat.

The very simple question facing the Chiefs on Monday: What went wrong?

“We just didn’t finish the right way,” Chiefs safety Tyrann Mathieu said. “In the run game, even in the pass game, we didn’t finish how we normally would. Even when we get in certain zone coverages, we didn’t match them as well as we’ve done in the past. We’ll grow from it, we’ll learn from it, but hats off to them. They made the plays that counted.”

The Chiefs (4-1) had every opportunity to extend their franchise-record 13-game winning streak another week.

Despite allowing those

Kansas City Chiefs cornerback Bashaud Breeland picks off a pass intended for Las Vegas Raiders tight end Darren Waller in the first quarter on Sunday. Little else went right for the KC defense, however, in a 40-32 defeat. THE KANSAS CITY STAR/JILL TOYOSHIBA/TNS three TD passes in the second quarter, the Chiefs were still tied 24-24 at halftime, and they managed to hold Las Vegas in check during a scoreless third quarter. But with their offense continuously misfiring, the defense finally gave up a pair of touchdown

runs to Josh Jacobs and Daniel Carlson’s field goal over the final 15 minutes.

And when Patrick Mahomes led the Chiefs to a TD and 2-point conversion down the stretch, their defense allowed Jacobs to rumble for a first down and Carr to sneak

for another to clinch the Raiders’ first win at Arrowhead Stadium since 2012.

“They had a heck of a game plan,” Jones said.

“They came out with some formation we hadn’t seen on See CHIEFS | Page B6

Dodgers make history ARLINGTON, Texas (AP) — Max Muncy’s grand slam capped a record-setting 11run first inning for the Los Angeles Dodgers, who coasted to a 15-3 rout of the Atlanta Braves on Wednesday night that cut their National League Championship Series deficit to 2 games to 1.

The slam by Muncy off Grant Dayton was the third homer in the first, the highest-scoring inning in a major league postseason game. It was among a franchise-record five homers for the Dodgers, who set a team record for postseason runs.

Joc Pederson hit a threerun homer off starter Kyle Wright to start his four-hit night, and Edwin Rios went deep on next pitch. Corey Seager had a pair of RBI hits in the opening outburst, then added a solo homer in the third as the Dodgers built a 15-0 lead — the first team with that many runs in the first three innings of a postseason game.

Winner Julio Urias, with three wins in three appearances this postseason though making his first start, struck out five while allowing one run on three hits over five innings. He walked the first two batters, but no more.

Three-time NL Cy Young Award winner Clayton Kershaw likely will start in Game 4 for the Dodgers, two nights after he was scratched because of back spasms. Bryse Wilson makes his postseason debut as the third rookie right-handed starter for Atlanta in this series in what will be his first appearance since the final day of the regular season on Sept. 27.

Pro sports in 2020 have produced memories and champions, with no asterisks

By MIKE ANTHONY The Hartford Courant

Major professional sports in 2020 look and sound a bit ridiculous.

The NBA and WNBA bubble scenes in Florida were reminiscent of pick-up games at the local YMCA. The NHL bubbles in Edmonton and Toronto had the feel of a Canadian junior bus league or a local 10:30 p.m. beer league.

The NFL season, with obnoxious manufactured crowd noise pumped into empty stadiums, is playing out to a distracting soundtrack.

And Major League Baseball, with league championship series taking place, still has the aesthetic appeal of spring training.

The optics and acoustics are insufferable. The void of pageantry and buzz has been filled by ill-timed recordings

and cardboard cutouts of Bruce Lee, Queen Elizabeth and season ticket holders with enough time or motivation to allow for their virtual participation.

But the championships are real. The level of play, across the board, remains up to par.

The between-the-lines products are as strong as ever. For players and particular fan bases, the joy of winning and torture of losing is as acute as in any other non-pandemic year.

So it has worked. If you shake our current sports world free from all on the periphery that feels so strange, you’ll realize we haven’t lost so much over the past seven months. Sports at the highest level continue to deliver to the fullest extent 2020 will allow amid a pandemic, with delays and pivoting, through protocols and over hurdles.

We got in enough games to

get in all the seasons, or we’re working toward that, one fragile NFL week at a time. We have, or are working toward, real trophies being earned and legacies being bolstered.

No asterisk needed, 2020 has just about given us all it can with COVID-19 snaking its way through most everything we try to accomplish.

LeBron James won his fourth NBA Finals MVP award with his third team and the Lakers’ won a 17th title. Neither accomplishment takes on lesser value for a truncated season taking place in the isolation of a gym instead of in packed arenas. It has more charm, even, given the sacrifice players made to spend about 100 days in the Disney bubble — without a single player testing positive for coronavirus.

OF ‘SOULMATES’ ON AMC Has working on “Soulmates” changed your views on soulmates?

I thought it was interesting that while shooting the episode that we did that just taking a kind of anecdotal tally of cast and crew, it was pretty divided of who would take the test and who wouldn’t take the test; who believed in a soulmate and who didn’t believe in a soulmate, because for me approaching the project I was pretty confirmed that, yeah, of course, I’d take the test and pretty amazed that people would think twice about taking it.

Did filming this trigger any regrets or uncertainties about your relationships?

I mean, I was single at the time I was doing it, so that’s maybe (why) I was much more gung-ho about the idea that I would take the test if I had it available. Yeah, I think you know you go through, as Brett was saying, a series of relationships through your 20s. And I guess once you reach your 30s, if you’re still sort of going, still looking, looking, looking, maybe the test is an easy way out if you’re single, but much more complicated if you’re already in a relationship.

Do you believe in soul mates?

I think that like I would like to believe in the idea of it, I think. I don’t think it necessarily exists. I think if there’s one person, then there has to be multiple people who are right for a person. And would I want to know? I guess at some point in your life you get to a point you’re like, I’d like to know now. But yeah, I think I’d like to believe in them, sure.

Sports: Is it too late to can the fake crowd noise?

Staying alive

championship in her 19th year with the Storm and Breanna Stewart, now a two-time Finals MVP, won her second at age 26. Bird is going down as the best point guard in history to this point and Stewart is the best player in the world right now. Their legacies are bolstered, not diminished, by what took place in the bubble.

The Lightning hoisted the Stanley Cup — just as shiny, just as meaningful as any time since 1893 — after defeating the Stars in Edmonton to end an arduous NHL season that came to a screeching halt, just like the NBA, before resuming in a bubble.

The NFL continues to define our Sundays — and even parts of our Tuesdays, now, given COVID flare-ups and necessary rescheduling.

The MLB playoffs are down to four teams and wouldn’t it be the most 2020 thing ever if the Astros, who cheated their way through previous seasons and ended this regular season with a losing record, wound up winning the World Series.

If there’s any real strike to competitive integrity we’re all so used it, it’s in baseball. The Astros crept into the expanded playoffs with a 29-31 record after a

Still, we’ll take what we can get this year and for however long we’re in a world improvising.

And at the end of all these strange seasons and trying experiences, there are victories that mean much the same as they always do — even more, perhaps.

They’re more rewarding for what went in to building a platform.

I don’t buy the argument that any championship in any sport, or in any season, is harder to win than the next.

James’ latest title was harder than the first three, for sure, but the weeks-long or months-

long bubble experience was probably more difficult than anything all NBA players have experienced.

This season was simply more difficult to participate in. James rode off into the Florida sunset and further into the conversation about best-player-ever, puffing a cigar and demanding more respect, because his team was the best on equal ground, just like any other year.

The emotions on display were profound.

Aren’t they always?

Because no matter the path, it’s the final moments and what’s made of them that leaves one overwhelmed. The

Lakers, the Storm, the Lightning and whoever wins the World Series and Super Bowl won’t have to look back on a 2020 with guilt or discomfort or apologies.

There is nothing wrong with being a champion in 2020, in a time of great sacrifice.

We shouldn’t come out of this with many complaints.

Maybe just one.

The fake crowd noise is atrocious.

There have been no fans, or just a few thousand, at most games in most sports.

Let’s stop pretending we don’t understand that.

If ever there was a

blown opportunity to advance the fan’s viewing experience when the fan’s in-person experience was eliminated, it was in the decision to have broadcasts and ballparks filled with noise at the press of a button instead of allowing for on-field conversations to make their way through our TV speakers.

That bothers me. The Astros bother me, too. So be it. I’ll take what I can get and celebrate sports in 2020 for what they are and what they became against the odds, no regrets, no asterisks.

SAN DIEGO (AP) — George Springer broke a tie with a two-run homer, José Altuve homered and hit an RBI double, and Zack Greinke escaped a bases-loaded jam for the Houston Astros, who beat the Tampa Bay Rays 4-3 on Wednesday night to stay alive in the AL Championship Series.

With Altuve atoning for his poor defense this series, the Astros finally got their offense going after being pushed to the brink of a sweep.

Seeking their third pennant in four seasons, they trail 3-1 going into Game 5 on Thursday afternoon.

The Rays remain one win from going to the World Series for the second time in franchise history.

film and started to throw shots, especially out of the gun. They caught us off-guard a little bit.

As a D-line, we harp on making sacks, affecting the quarterback, and we didn’t execute. We have to do a better job.”

WHAT’S WORKING

The offense may have struggled in the third quarter, but it still showed how dynamic it can be in marching 75 yards in 1:29 for a fourth-quarter touchdown that gave them a chance. Eight players caught passes, Clyde Edwards-Helaire averaged a respectable 4 yards per carry and Mahomes still finished with 340 yards passing and two TDs.

WHAT NEEDS HELP

Mahomes and the offense did all that despite a line that couldn’t stop the Las Vegas defensive front, even though the

Raiders almost never rushed more than four.

Mahomes has shredded defenses that have tried to blitz him into mistakes, but the Raiders got enough pressure out of their base defense that it took much of the pressure off their secondary.

STOCK UP

The Chiefs made a concerted effort to get Tyreek Hill more involved in the game plan.

He had three catches for 78 yards and three carries for 15 yards and a score. He also caught a 58-yard TD pass that was wiped out by a holding penalty and nearly had a 72-yard touchdown catch — a questionable no-call on pass interference caused him to drop it.

and their Chiefs counterparts barely touched Carr all afternoon. The KC defensive line also couldn’t contain Jacobs and the Raiders’ other running backs in the fourth quarter, when the outcome was still hanging in the balance.

INJURED

Guard Kelechi Osemele, who already was replacing the opted-out Laurence Duvernay-Tardif, will miss the rest of the season after tearing ligaments in his right knee. Middle linebacker Anthony Hitchens spent much of the game in and out of the lineup because of a hand injury, and wide receiver Sammy Watkins left with a hamstring injury.

STOCK DOWN

KEY NUMBER

Everybody in the trenches had a rough day. The offensive line couldn’t handle the Las Vegas defensive front,

and moving him past Dwayne Bowe for the second most in Chiefs history. Tony Gonzalez had 916 catches from 1997 to 2008.

NEXT STEPS

The Chiefs were supposed to visit Buffalo tonight, but the NFL juggled the schedule Sunday because of COVID-19 protocols and pushed their game to next Monday night. That gives the Chiefs three extra days to fix the many issues that popped up against Las Vegas, including penalties — they had 10 of them and two that wiped out touchdowns.
