Bucklin, KS (AP) — Bucklin residents have approved Sunday liquor sales by a vote of 118 – 49.

Bucklin Mayor Mike Fisher said Sunday sales are allowed in the town of Ford, about seven miles away, and Coldwater, about 20 miles away.

The mayor says Bucklin had a liquor store and two convenience stores when talk of allowing Sunday sales first arose. The liquor store and one convenience store have since closed. Fisher says those two establishments might reopen now since Sunday sales are approved.
