(KMZA)--Marshall County voters will face a special question during the November 4 general election.

Voters will decide if the sale of liquor by the drink should be allowed in public places without a food sales requirement.

The Marshall County Commission adopted a resolution in August to place the special question on the ballot.

Kansas voters amended the state constitution in 1986, allowing counties to approve the sale of liquor by the drink. Marshall County voters subsequently approved the sale of liquor by the drink with a 30% food sales requirement.

As of early 2025, 51 of the state's 105 counties had eliminated the food sales requirement for liquor sales. One county, Wallace, prohibits the sale of liquor by the drink entirely and only allows 3.2 beer sales.
