Kobach defends voter fraud prosecutions in Kansas
Kansas Secretary of State Kris Kobach defends his office in nine months of voter fraud cases, saying six prosecutions justify new prosecutorial power. He predicts more guilty pleas this month and notes a 2010 12 14 election focus with a May 2015 slate ahead. Local critics call it unnecessary and a waste of resources, while Kobach argues illegal votes cancel legitimate ones and deter future offenses.

Merrick criticizes budgeting as driven by estimates after a $53 million year over year rise. Lawmakers note ongoing revenue shortfalls since 2014 and past tax policy effects. The discussion references 17 years without change, the CRE framework, and calls for adjustments to ensure a balanced end to the fiscal year.

GCPD bike patrol returns to city streets with Beagle
GCPD officers on bicycles cost 1300 dollars each and patrol the whole city, slipping into tight spaces and arriving ahead of cars at times. Mora reports reaching 31 mph, bike routes cover quick end-to-end travel, and officers say bikes help public accessibility and exercise. As seasons change, two full time bike officers expect miles to rise from 16 to 25 daily and school resource officers will join on bicycles after May.

Center for Reproductive Rights and Janet Crepps urge Supreme Court review after a divided Kansas Court of Appeals held the state constitution protects abortion. The court plans a May 10 school finance case before a September break, with potential ripple effects on future state abortion restrictions and related cases across Kansas and beyond. Mary Kay Culp of Kansans for Life cautions on aligning with federal limits on barbaric abortion methods.
