TOPEKA, Kan. (AP) — A key question in Tuesday’s election in Kansas is how angry voters are with Republican Gov. Sam Brownback over the state’s budget woes.
The backlash could hurt Brownback’s fellow GOP conservatives in legislative races. It also could save Kansas Supreme Court justices who have been targeted for ouster by conservative Republicans and abortion opponents.
Brownback is term-limited but is a big target for both Democrats and moderate Republicans.
