GOP could lose seats in Kansas House race
Prominent Republicans warn Tuesday’s elections may shrink the Republican edge in the Kansas House from 92 to as few as 88 seats. Governor Brownback and allies expect conservatives to hold at least 63 seats, while redistricting creates more competitive districts and several districts have two incumbents from different parties. Democrats say redistricting helps them hold parity, though the Senate under conservatives shifts the landscape for Brownback’s agenda.
