TOPEKA, Kan. – At the request of No Labels Kansas, the office of the Kansas Secretary of State terminated its status as an officially recognized political party in the state.
No Labels Kansas was officially recognized as a political party in January 2024 after their petition was approved by the Secretary of State. The party notified the Secretary of State’s office on Friday, May 15, of its desire to terminate its status in Kansas.
Counties have been directed, pursuant to state law, to change voter registration records with the No Labels Kansas party to an unaffiliated party affiliation.

No Labels Kansas Decertification Letter, dated May 15, 2026

RE: Termination of No Labels Kansas as a Political Party
Dear Mr. Secretary:
Please accept this letter as official notification from No Labels Kansas that it is voluntarily withdrawing its status as a political party.
As you know from the No Labels Kansas State Committee’s initial submission, which included an adopted copy of the organization’s Constitution and Bylaws, No Labels Kansas was formed only for the purpose of potentially nominating candidates for President and Vice President. Because No Labels Kansas declined to nominate candidates for those offices in 2024 and has no intention of doing so in the future, its central organizational purpose no longer exists. Consequently, No Labels Kansas hereby requests the termination of any recognition for No Labels Kansas as a state political party and all its functions, duties, requirements, and processes granted under Kansas state law.
If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact me at the below email address.
Sincerely,
Shane Mathis
Secretary and Treasurer
No Labels Kansas
