Barnett joins crowded 1st District GOP race in Kansas
Kansas state Sen. Jim Barnett launched his campaign in Emporia and began a four day tour of the 1st District visiting 69 counties. He criticizes Washington for high spending taxes and borrowing and advocates conservative Kansas values amid a field that includes Tim Huelskamp and Rob Wasinger as potential front runners.
