Democrats regroup after losses in Kansas legislature
Democrats Kathleen Sebelius and Mark Parkinson built brief coalitions with moderate Republicans to approve a budget and a one cent sales tax increase. Election losses on November 2 shattered that coalition, though Davis remains hopeful about issue-based coalitions. Leadership races loom as Republicans and Democrats vie for posts in the upcoming session.
