Labor backs Roy in Kansas endorsement amid Democratic tilt
Kansas labor unions including the AFL-CIO endorsed Bill Roy and seven other Democrats for statewide or congressional posts, while backing Fletcher Bell for insurance commissioner and Senator Carlin for governor. The federation did not endorse in two districts where Republicans have no opposition. Betty Paxson won the labor nod for secretary of state after a floor fight, with Brier narrowly rejected for endorsement. Roy addressed labor leaders and contrasted his stance with Kassebaum while noting Labor’s long alliance with Alf Landon.
