Anti tax spending shapes some Kansas resignations races
Two anti tax advocacy groups KC Prosperity and Kansas Club for Growth ran direct mail and radio campaigns to aid or defeat legislators over tax issues. They helped win two open seats for Republicans opposed to tax hikes and boosted several incumbents, but failed in at least four high profile matchups against incumbent Democrats and Democrats toppled at least two pro spend incumbents. The groups were especially effective in primaries as three moderate Republicans who backed tax increases fell to conservative challengers.
