Sebelius opens bid for re election in Kansas
Gov. Kathleen Sebelius announced plans to seek a second term, citing a stronger economy and a record fundraising lead after a long period of deferring campaign talk. Aimed at broad appeal in a Republican-leaning state, she faces a June filing deadline and ongoing questions about a running mate. The governor highlighted job growth and school finance reforms while critics note past tax increase proposals and veto battles.

Rain showers bring moisture to southwest Kansas wheat
Rain showers moved through southwest Kansas boosting topsoil moisture for farmers and grain producers. Scott City area saw trace rains while eight miles east of Garden City received about half an inch. Sublette and Dodge City areas reported similar totals. Harvest may be slim due to heat and wind stressing irrigated wheat. KSU and extension officials note uneven irrigation and plan tours as highs reach the mid 90s with Memorial Day weekend forecast in the high 90s and little rain.
