Marshall is dumb as well. He has better backers. demtenjeep Aug 2020 #7
I for one, am glad Kobach will not be a Senator. Yes he MIGHT have been easier to beat. yellowcanine Aug 2020 #9

than Kobach would have been but we have good people working for her and she is not going to lay down and let him roll. Fingers crossed. I was so mixed about Kobach winning. It would have been godawful if he ended up in the senate. So Roger Marshall is going to be harder to beat but we must, he is well liked around the state and I rarely hear anything bad about him from those he has represented but he IS bad. I see they actually let him change his name to Roger "Doc" Marshall. What a ploy. She should run and Barbara "Doc" Bollier but then I do not think she needs that.

I'm a Kansan, and I LOATHE Kobach. If it means a tougher race then I'm okay with eliminating the possibility that that unamerican voter-disenfranchising white supremacist SOB gets to represent my state.

when he was clearly the victim of vote fraud. I mean this calls for a vicious Republican knife fights involving lawsuits and slander.

But easier is not the same as actually beating him. Well now he is beaten. And hopefully enough bad blood to split Republican voters enough so some stay home in November and maybe the Democrat wins.
